Key Points• A wave is visible evidence of energy passing through water.• The sawing and grinding action of rock fragments in the water is
called abrasion.• Beach nourishment decreases beach erosion without the
construction of protective structures.• Beach nourishment, groins and seawalls are designed to prevent or
slow shoreline erosion.• The energy that drives surface ocean currents comes from wind.• Friction is involved in the development of surface currents.• The Coriolis effect causes surface ocean currents to be deflected.• The rising of cold water from deeper layers to replace warmer
surface water is called upwelling.• Ocean currents that move toward the poles are warm.• An ocean current that is moving toward the equator is cold.

Types of Water Movement
• There are three general types of ocean water movement:1. ____________________2. ________________currents3. ________________ currents
• Each plays a different role in the movement of water in the oceans.

Waves• When you go to the beach, what is one of the first
things that you notice?

Waves
• Waves are continuously _________against the ________________________.

• The ______________________action of rock fragments in the water is called abrasion.
• Abrasion creates all sorts of ________________ structures along the shoreline.

Waves
• In some areas, like the Outer Banks of North Carolina, work is being done to protect the shoreline and keep it from being eroded.
• Three protective structures that protect a shoreline from erosion are:
1. beach _________________________2. ___________________________3. ___________________________

• Why would it be important to protect shorelines like the Outer Banks?

Waves
• Beach nourishment is the ______________ ____________________________________.
• Beach nourishment _______________beach erosion ________________the construction of protective structures.

Why would beach nourishment be important in an area like this?

Waves• Groins are barriers built to trap sand to keep
the shoreline from losing sand.

Waves• A Seawall is a wall built to shield the coast and
defend property from breaking waves.

Surface Currents
• Surface currents are movements of water that flow ______________on the ____________of the ocean.
• Like with waves, the ____________that drives surface ocean currents comes from ___________.
• _____________is also involved in the development of surface currents.
