How do Ocean Waves Work?

[@michaelenglish839]

After living on both coasts and this country's interior, I've seen the difference in people's attitudes towards the ocean and it's stunning. I've met so many people who have actually never been to the beach, and don't really care.

For pure swells over deep water, small parcels of water actually move in small circles with a radius about the same order as the height of the wave. The radius of motion decreases as an exponential function with depth. When the water gets shallower compered to the wavelength the motion becomes more and more elliptical, first near the base. Over very shallow water the motion of parcels becomes mostly horizontal. The horizontal "shallow water" model rarely applies to wind driven waves though, as they have too short of a wavelength compared to their height, and hence tend to break easily. Tsunamis OTOH have an extremely long wavelength compared to normal wind-generated waves. Therefore they can obey the "shallow water" model even when the water is over a hundred feet deep. The horizontal motion gets larger and larger as the water gets shallower, and it can have a long period of ten or more minutes. The long horizontal motion of water in a tsunami is what contains the destructive energy. The height isn't as important.

Why does large pools or a lake don't have waves? Doesn't gravity affect them too?

[@Artywastaken]

yes, gravity affects them, the thing is, on a much much smaller scale, a large pool would probably be still and would have no waves, this is because all the walls are not moving( unlike the continents that touch the ocean which are constantly drifting, breaking into each other, and sliding along) the lake however, would probably have mine waves because they are not exactly "controlled" and yes, a lake is a much smaller scale of the ocean, but quite larger than a pool. Yourwelcome

[@julimartraboulsi9588]

True

[@nightcloud598]

The deeper the water, the bigger the waves! Since a lake isn't very deep compared to the ocean, the waves formed there exist, but are tiny, therefore often go unnoticed.

[@IndiaNumberOneCoubtry]

Some lakes have waves idk why people replying to this comment say they dont. People surf on Lake Michigan. Look up ice beard surfer on yt

[@Artywastaken]

@@IndiaNumberOneCoubtry Thats a big lake, like a really big lake. Most lakes are not that big

[@darcy5823]

ELI5 - what happens to the wave energy when it hits the shore? Does it become wind? Energy traveling through air now instead of water? And I get that the wave moves through water, it's not the water moving, but at the apex of a wave there is more volume so some water is being displaced to create height? I really wish I'd taken more stem classes when I was younger!

[@delayedcreator4783]

the energy gets lost as sound ,heat and mainly kinetic and potential energy

[@ajiebkp]

Nice and informative video, but 1:02 waves do not move up and down. The water particle moves in a circular (or ellips in shallow water) motions, it has velocities and accelerations in horizontal directions too. These wave kinematics are highest at the top, but decrease along the depth

[@marshallsweatherhiking1820]

Yes, but the motion becomes more of a horizontal ellipse near the base as the wave encounters shallow water. If the amplitude is large compared to the depth, a phase-decoupling occurs where upper portion of the wave travels faster than the lower portion. This leads wave breaking. After waves have fully broken they behave in a shock-like manner with a turbulent discontinuity in both height and motion at a sharp leading-edge. This discontinuous shock-like kinematic model applies to both tsunamis and smaller lapping beach waves. The motion is mostly horizontal outside of the turbulent break zone at this point.

[@mark9naviestoque561]

That means the water literally leveled unless the waves occurred.

[@jimliu7086]

Thanks for explaining how waves work! It was really satisfying to understand that the wave moves through the particles and that the particles don’t move. Keep it up 👍👍

So if no moon the oceans would be still as a lake? Awesome how coastal waves make such great ambient sounds

[@narmjep5674]

mikeyb byekim No, the sun is also responsible for tides

[@secretunknown2782]

No you are wrong the thing which moon creates are tides there is a lot of difference between tides and waves Waves are caused by air pressure and wind while tides are caused by moon there would still be waves if moon did not existed

[@mond646]

No, only tidal waves are caused by gravity, there would still be wind-driven waves and tsunamis

[@justaguy4real]

@@secretunknown2782 my understanding is that with the constant rotation of Earth and the moon's gravity pulling on the ocean waters that the tides constantly changing the impacted areas inconsistently are also have waves form too

[@sarahmillson1594]

But then why there are no waves in the lakes? first 2 types of waves (wind driven, tidal waves don't apply to the lakes?

[@delayedcreator4783]

lakes aren't large enough

[@riz4564]

I am from Uzbekistan. I have never seen a beach or wave.I wish one day I will

[@rexylem]

a big mistake at 0:50, water actually is moving along with the wave, that is called current.

[@Artywastaken]

It also bobs up and down, so he just forgot to add that part.

[@ajiebkp]

Waves do not cause the water particles to be displaced, rather it causes the particles to move in a circular motions (not up and down). When it comes to current, the two can interact (waves-current interactions), changing the property of the wave (wavelength/wavenumber). Current, on the other hand, is caused by different physical phenomenons, wind, temperature/pressure difference, salinity, coriolis force, tide, etc.

0:19 "2% of energy from ocean waves can be used to power the entire world". The big energy companies who keep hiking up the energy prices, do so by telling us about supply shortage. They need to see this video.

[@isaacflett1321]

Very difficult to extract that energy. Similar to saying 0.00...1% of the suns energy can power the planet. True but irrelevant if we can't extract it.

[@tedcurry9239]

Sooooo...you mean the speed of tidal waves equals to the speed of the earth's rotation?

[@AlabhyaVeerKumar]

So the water is moving to only up and down in the ocean but once it reaches the shore it essentially moves left to right as well

[@khan92asif]

Movement of ocean waves is ORBITAL PROGRESSIVE, which means water moves in circular orbits, due to forward up and backward down movement of water as the waves passes.

[@sharkyrich4844]

I believe that waves are caused by oscillating pressures in weather systems that raise and drop the ocean surface. It's the only way I can account for the energy I'm seeing.

[@hectorh.1341]

So on a calm day there are still waves. Gravity only makes things move down hill. Gravity doesn’t make leaves on trees move nor people. And the earth’s rotation is what makes water move. If gravity made water move then people would be surfing in their swimming pools. Make sense?

[@cadejust6777]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKTGh5ypjM-Sjdll00

[@TheUltimateWriterNZ]

Because the 'groundswell' comes from hundreds to thousands of km's away. Wind-driven swell is no good for most people - you want gentle offshore winds to keep it nice and clean with a good swell coming in :D

[@jezmarshall9941]

Swell is waves generated by wind far away, even if calm where you are. The Earth's rotation,coupled with the moon's gravity produce tides, but waves you see on the beach are generated by wind.

[@willyouwright]

Also tides are formed by tugging of water on sides of planet . The way the tides move over shores is what causes tides. If there where no shores youd not be able to even see a wave.

[@jezmarshall9941]

If there were no shores, there would still be wind generated waves, just the same (but you'd need a to have a boat to see it)

[@haniffaris8917]

Someone need to clarify the "It's the earth that's moving, not the water" bit for me in 02:03.

[@anmolsharma5134]

watch the complete video and different type of waves . tidal waves are generated through pull of moon and sun which varies as earth keeps moving. so waves are occuring because of rotation of earth so earth is moving not the water

Waves do add but they don't transfer energy to each other. They always pass right through each other. If they run next each other at the same time and hit a shore that's just luck. Kingwaves.

I thought waves were caused by the rotation of the Earth. I think it was called the Coriolis effect?
