The motto of Laguna Beach High School is 'Catching Waves to Success'.
The moon's gravity causes waves and tides to rise. During a period called 'high tide', the moon is closer to the Earth than usual, and the result is that it's gravity causes ocean waves to be higher than normal.
Sound waves are like ocean waves because it resembles an ocean wave with crests (peak) and troughs (valleys). The crests indicate regions of high pressure and the troughs, low pressure.
Inthe 30 years that i have visited the beach the summer time waves seem to be no more than a height of 18 inches or so .
Pretty much at every beach connected to an ocean, or seas and even rivers close & connected to oceans. An other rule to remember is: the steeper the beach (or sand of you want) the less effect that low and high tides have. Some places as examples: - Rio de Janeiro - Punta del Este - Beach at the Hague - Fanö beach - Miami beach - etc
Low tide is when ocean water recedes from the beach. High tide is when the ocean water climbs
high and low tides
Earthquake or Strong Winds
You can figure out how high the wave will be due to the wind and depth of the ocean.
no destructive they erode the land. In places that are flat like Florida there are no high waves but in California where there are cliffs the waves are higher.
The Mexican ocean flooded into inland as waves was high by really Strong wind
Answering my own question - just realized as posting it's High seas. Doh!
