How do ocean waves form?
Ocean waves form as wind blows across the surface of the water, creating friction and energy that transfers to the water. The energy causes the water to move in a circular motion, forming waves that travel across the ocean's surface. Factors such as wind speed, duration, and distance over which it blows determine the size and strength of the waves.
Where do ocean waves start?
Ocean waves are formed by the wind transferring its energy to the surface of the water. When the wind blows across the surface of the ocean, it creates ripples that then develop into waves. The size and power of the waves depend on factors such as wind speed, duration, and fetch (the distance over which the wind blows).
When a sea breeze blows which of the following best describes the way the wind is blowing?
A sea breeze blows from the ocean to the land. Land heats more rapidly than water, resulting in lower pressure and rising air over land, which causes air to move from the ocean to land.
Type of breeze that blow from an ocean or lake onto land?
A sea breeze is a type of breeze that blows from an ocean or lake onto land. It is caused by temperature differences between the water and the land, with the water staying cooler during the day and the land warming up faster.
What is a local wind system created during the day?
A sea breeze is a local wind system created during the day. It forms when cooler air from the ocean moves inland to replace the rising warm air over the land. This creates a breeze that is generally felt along coastlines during daytime hours.
What local wind blows during the day from an ocean toward land?
A sea breeze is a local wind that blows from the ocean towards the land during the day. This wind is caused by the temperature difference between the land, which heats up faster than the water, creating a pressure gradient that drives the breeze inland.
A seasonal wind that blows from the land to the ocean during the dry season and from the ocean to the land in the wet season?
Monsoon
Type of breeze that blows from an ocean lake or land?
type of breeze that blows from an ocean lake or land
What is offshore and onshore?
well the exact term of offshore is that is is not on this planet. it is very hard to get, and to find. on shore is that it is on earth and pretty local to get at. onshore is mostly were we get out resources :-)
What is the wind that blows over the Indian Ocean and the southeast ocean?
It is called the Monsoon
Why During the warmest part of a June day breeze blows from the ocean toward the shore at a beach?
air pressure over the ocean is higher than air pressure over the land!
What Type of breeze is it that blows from an ocean or lake to the land?
sea breeze
What is the wind that blows from ocean onto land called?
it is called convection
What happens when waterv vapor condensee?
Air blows from the ocean toward land
Is it true that surface currents in the ocean develop from the friction between the ocean and the wind that blows across its surface?
Yes it is true.
