What forces cause most ocean waves?
Area of ocean in which wind blows (fetch), wind velocity, and wind duration control the size of ocean waves.
What two things that cause ocean waves?
The moon and wind (created by the sun heating the air)
What changes are likely to happen when ocean waves meet with land?
It can cause a Tsunami a huge sea wave.
What is a giant ocean wave caused by an earthquake or a severe storm called?
A Tsunami, or tidal wave, or seismic sea wave may be caused by an earthquake. It is incorrect to refer to giant ocean waves caused by severe storms as tsunamis. Severe storms may cause giant ocean waves referred to as "Rogue Waves" - which are distinct from and NOT the same as Tsunamis.
What causes waves?
The MOON cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The MOON transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules.
What are sea cliffs?
Cliffs that are eroded by upward drafts of wind and ocean waves
Are ocean tides constructive?
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.
How sea caves form?
Sea caves form by ocean waves pounding at the base of seashore cliffs.
Do waves in the ocean cause erosion but not deposition?
No
How do ocean waves form?
Ocean waves are form cause of the wind, or earthquakes. It forms when energy is transferred from a source to the ocean water.
What ocean waves cause when they carve out soft areas of a cliff?
deconstructive waves
What describes the cause of waves in the ocean?
surface waves
How do you get ocean cliffs on super secret the game?
ocean cliffs is actually cavern falls!
What waves cause damage to property?
Waves from the ocean which come up with force or depth can cause damage to property. Compressional waves or tsunami waves are an example of these seismic waves.
Are oceans constructive or destructive?
ocean waves are both, that's why you have different types of coasts - eg - cliffs, beaches from diffent types of erosion
How and why do cliffs change?
Erosion by the wind, rain and waves will wear cliffs away
How are ocean waves made?
The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean. The wind transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Stronger winds cause larger waves.
