Across
  1. 2. current driven by wind systems
  2. 5. directs sound waves to the sea floor at an angle
  3. 11. profile that plots changing water temperature against depth
  4. 12. tide when Sun, Moon, and Earth all align
  5. 13. is highest point of wave
  6. 14. is characterized by rapidly decreasing temperatures with depth
  7. 15. level of the ocean's surface
  8. 16. periodic rise and fall of sea level
  9. 17. current caused by differences in temperatures and salinity of ocean water
Down
  1. 1. are global wind system located between 30* N and 60* N.
  2. 3. where a large river empties into the ocean
  3. 4. rhythmic movement that carries energy through space and matter
  4. 6. measures the amount of dissolved salt
  5. 7. is lowest point of wave
  6. 8. when deeper water moves vertically
  7. 9. a collapsing wave
  8. 10. tide is when tidal range is the lowest
