4. The ? the wind blows, the larger the waves are. (Duration of wind)
7. Process by which waves change direction as they approach a coast
11. The arrangement and composition of rock found in the area
12. ? waves break violently on the shore with high energy
14. The ? the wind blows, the greater the wave energy is (Wind speed)
15. When waves break, water rushes up a beach. We call this a ?
16. When rock particles carried by waves rub or hit against one another, they break down into smaller pieces and become smoother and more rounded over time
18. ? waves break far from the shore and with little energy

1. Something that forms when wind blows across the surface of seas and oceans
2. Waves in the open ocean have a ? wave length
3. Ocean currents that flow parallel to a coast
4. Combined effect of sediment movements by longshore currents and beach drift is known as?
5. Area where the land meets the sea
6. Large-scale, continuous movements of water in seas and oceans
8. Remaining resistant rocks which extend into the sea
9. Waves in the open ocean have a low wave height
10. Daily alternate rise and fall in the sea level
13. The ? the fetch, the more energy the waves have (Fetch)
17. A zone of sediment deposition
18. A steep and near vertical rock face along the coasts
