they spread out and expand less energy
The northernmost state along the Atlantic Ocean coastline is Maine. The northernmost state along the Pacific Ocean coastline is Washington.

No, mid-ocean ridges are not located mostly along coastlines. Mid-ocean ridges are underwater mountain ranges that form where tectonic plates are pulling apart. They are located in the middle of the ocean and can extend for thousands of kilometers.
The Appalachian Mountains cover up most of the area along the Atlantic Ocean.
Rainfall does not directly affect ocean salinity, as rainwater is freshwater and dilutes the salt content in the ocean. Other factors such as evaporation, ice formation, and river input can influence ocean salinity levels.
The refraction of light through the water created a mesmerizing display of colors on the ocean floor.

beach erosion is caused by the movement of ocean currents along the shoreline, and by wave action. As an ocean current moves parallel to the shore, it will carry away sediment. Wave action also does this, kind of similarly to currents.
Wave refraction occurs in ocean waves due to the variation in wave speed as they approach shallow water. As waves move from deeper to shallower areas, their speed decreases, causing the waves to bend. This bending occurs because different parts of the wave front travel at different speeds, resulting in a change in direction. Consequently, wave refraction influences the wave energy distribution along the shoreline, often leading to increased erosion or deposition in certain areas.
Clean Ocean Action was created in 1984.
The agent of erosion most likely responsible for the deposition of sandbars along ocean shorelines is wave action. Waves can move sediment along the coastline and deposit it in certain areas, forming sandbars.
The Atacama Desert is along the Pacific Ocean.
because the ocean currents circulate heat as well as moisture along the coasts, therefore, all of the major deserts that we see, are well away from the major oceans
how does the sun affect the formation of ocean currants

Yes ocean currents do affect japan.
