What do you call when water from a wave rushes up a beach?
This phenomenon is called a "swash." It occurs when a wave moves up a beach or shore.
What does deconstructive wave mean?
A deconstructive wave refers to a type of coastal wave that breaks and then rushes back towards the ocean, often resulting in erosion of the beach. This type of wave can play a role in reshaping coastlines and impacting nearby ecosystems.
What is the name of a wave that curves over and breaks?
A wave that curves over and breaks is called a "curling" or "cresting" wave. This process occurs when the wave's energy is concentrated at the crest, causing it to collapse and break.
What is a high wave called?
A high wave is called a "swell" when it is traveling across the ocean without breaking. If the swell gets steeper and eventually breaks, it is then called a "wave."
Is a part of a wave that folds over when it drags along the beach?
As the momentum of the wave moves towards the shallow shore, the bottom slows due to friction with the seabed, while the top keeps moving. Eventually, the top of the wave curls over in a crest, that breaks on to the beach.

An area of wave washed sediment along a coast is called?
beach.

What is a sea wave that breaks on rocks?
That is called a breaker.

What is water from a wave rushing up a beach?
it is called 'surfer"

What is the highest point a wave?
The highest point of a wave is called the crest. It is the peak of the wave where the amplitude is the greatest before it breaks or subsides.
What is the froth of the wave called?
The froth of the wave is called foam. It is created when air is mixed with water as the wave breaks, forming bubbles and causing the water to appear white and bubbly.
What is the foam called on the crest of a wave?
The foam at the top of a wave is called 'spume'
A man is standing on the shore of a beach up to his knees in water Every 5 seconds a wave breaks on him What is the period of the wave?
period = reciprocal of frequency = 1/5 = 0.2 seconds
