Answer:

Coastal Processes

The coastal zone is that part of the land surface influenced by marine processes. It extends from the landward limit of tides, waves, and wind blown coastal dunes, and seaward to the point at which waves interact significantly with the seabed.The coastal zone is a dynamic part of the Earth's surface where both marine and atmospheric processes produce rocky coasts, as well as beaches and dunes, barriers and tidal inlets, and shape deltas. The atmospheric processes include temperature, precipitation, and winds, while the major marine processes are waves and tides, together with water temperature and salinity. The coast also supports rich ecosystems, including salt marshes, mangroves, seagrass, and coral reefs. The diverse coastal ecology is favored by the shallow waters, abundant sunlight, terrestrial and marine nutrients, tidal and wave flushing, and a range of habitat types.

Waves — generation and types.

Waves provide about half the energy to do work at the coast. Ocean waves are generated by wind blowing over the ocean surface. The stronger the wind, the longer it blows and the longer the fetch, or stretch of ocean over which it blows, the larger the waves (Figure 1). The world's greatest wave factories are in the zone of sub-polar lows centered on 40–60° N and S latitudes, the so-called roaring 40's and screaming 60's. The strong westerly winds produce the world's biggest waves which initially head west, and are deflected equatorward by the Coriolis effect, arriving from the northwest in the northern hemisphere and southwest in the southern hemisphere (Figure 2). Other major wave climates are the easterly waves produced by the expansive but moderate velocity northeast and southeast Trade winds — and lesser seasonal waves produced by the monsoons and even the polar easterlies, together with occasional hurricanes that can produce massive waves as well as storm surges.
