Wind wave

WIND:  Winds are caused by differences in air pressure.  They move from areas of high pressure to low pressure.  Differences in air pressure are caused by unequal heating of the atmosphere.  Cool air has higher air pressure so it flows underneath the warm, less dense air.  Winds that blow over short distances and are caused by unequal heating of Earth’s surface within a small area. Waves  Waves start in the open ocean  The size of a wave depends on the strength of the

for his mistake. The Seventh Man did yell for K to move but K did not hear him and as a result he was eaten by a wave. Perhaps the seventh man should have tried to grab K, but he was really far out at the beach and he was probably worried that he would end up getting eaten by the wave just like K was another reason the Seventh Man should forgive himself is because he didn't create the wave to get K. The seventh man should forgive himself because K is his best friend and he wouldn't want the Seventh

1. The habitat of the green crab changed after 1900 and this is important because all of the shells found prior to 1900 are thin and taller than the ones found after the green crab migrated to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. This information can be found in introduction of Seeley’s paper. 2. Seeley used an ocular micrometer at x10 magnification. Shell height was measured with calipers. This information was found in the methods section of the paper. 3. Seeley cannot conclude from only the field experiment

the slope crest to trough. When the stern is high your propeller could rise out of the water. If the rudder loses contact with the flow of water, it will be left useless. Your boat could yaw to one side and broach into the trough. Sliding down the wave fast enough to bury the bow is another reason for concern. Pitchpoling can exists when the stern is being pushed. To take the swells off one quarter and the other try tacking before the seas. When running before the seas consider towing a drogue to

This report is on energy. Energy is the strength and vitality required for sustained physical or mental activity. What that was saying is that for everything you want to do, you have to have the physical ability and the mind set to do it. Energy and work are the two most important things in human society. Work is activity involving mental or physical effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result. That means, is you want something done, DO IT. Kinetic energy is energy that a body possesses by

surf twelve foot waves. These waves are so powerful that they can crush the body if one falls off a surf board or one can be taken far out into the ocean by the extremely strong rip currents that follow these waves. The loud roar of the waves crashing on the shore with the power of a great white shark filled my ears and all that I could think of was, ‘How am I going to face this mysterious creature?” The conditions are perfect today-the wind direction, tide and size of the waves are a surfer’s paradise

Surfing -- The Environment of Surfing (Part I of II) Surfing has changed since Christian missionaries observed Polynesians in the waves centuries ago. Light, new materials and a variety of board shapes have opened surfing to more people while allowing expert surfers to ride more waves in different ways. In the US, surfers can be found along the Atlantic seaboard and from Alaska to Baja on the Pacific side of the nation (and, of course, Hawaii). Choosing Your Style The first surfboards were heavy

The waves form and break in front of me, the sound of them crashing lingers in my ears . Sitting here at the beach, I feel as if the world was still and I was the only one who existed. My toes dig into the warm, golden sand and the pleasure sweeps over me. The slight breeze is twisting my hair into knots but I don’t care. Without a breeze, the beach wouldn’t be the beach. All I hear is the roaring waves crashing in front of me and the smell of salt and sand in the air. My feet hit the icy water and

Sometimes the throttle sticks. The hardest part is the smooth acceleration when the waves around you rock the boat. As the waves get bigger, I see my family's fists adjust grips on the railing. White knuckled, and lips pursed, they anticipate each wave. Salty waves break over the side and spray mist. My glasses are speckled with the dried salt from the repeated watery assaults. My sister turns to me, a slanted smile dressing her face. She is trying to impart confidence, but the repeated “fuel flow

riding the waves riding our boogie boards oh yes today was going to be fun! As I put on my swim suit I smelt the lingering smell of the oceans salty water from the previous time we had gone to the beach. It reminded me of how much fun I had, had and made me even more exited The whole time we were in the car driving to the beach I couldn’t help but to remember how much I loved the ocean I loved the salty water, the huge waves, I loved riding the waves with my board or just body surfing the waves, I loved
