High or low pressure lies along the subtropical jet stream,
depending on the time of year. The pressure gradient follows the
path of the jet stream.

How do waves change as they approach the shore
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/11
As waves approach the shore, interaction with the sea floor
slows the waves down and the crests of the waves bunch up. They
increase in height as the energy in each wave compresses into a
shorter horizontal distance, but the period of the wave does not
change. Eventually, the waves break.
