What to Focus On

  • Waves are caused mainly by wind.
  • They transmit energy, not water, across the ocean.
  • Tsunamis are caused by underwater disturbances like earthquakes.
  • Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
  • Centrifugal force also contributes to tidal bulges.
  • There are two high and two low tides every 24 hours and 25 minutes.
  • Ocean currents are large-scale movements of seawater.
  • Warm currents flow from equator to poles; cold currents from poles to equator.
  • Main factors: wind, Coriolis effect, temperature, salinity, and landmasses.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Tides are caused only by the Moon’s gravity pulling water upward.

Ocean currents are the same as waves or tides.

Spring tides happen during the season of spring.
