What to Focus On

  • Ocean water moves in three ways: waves, currents, and tides.
  • Waves are oscillatory movements of the sea surface.
  • Currents are regular movements of water in a fixed direction.
  • Waves are oscillatory movements of water.
  • Only the wave moves forward; water particles do not travel with it.
  • Crest is the upper part of a wave and trough is the lower part.
  • Currents are regular movements of water in a definite direction.
  • Water moves forward in currents.
  • Currents affect great depths, unlike waves.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Waves and currents are the same because both move seawater.

Wave size depends mainly on the depth of water.

A wave carries water forward, so a floating object travels with it automatically.

Memory Tips

Three forms of ocean water movement

Wave definition and particle movement

Crest and trough

Wavelength, wave period, and wave height
