1. WAVE DECAY 7.
SIGNIFICANT WAVE
- they decrease greatly in size the farther they travel
- wave-decay process allows the underlying long-
period waves to move out from beneath the messy
short-period sea state in the middle of the storm. 8.
Once these longer period waves break free from the
storm's confusion, they are easily identified as a
more organized wave train, which we call swell.
9.NEAP TIDE / NEAP WAVE
2. CLAPOTIS
- is a non-breaking standing wave pattern, caused for
example, by the reflection of a traveling surface
wave train from a near vertical shoreline like a
breakwater, seawall or steep cliff.

low tide each day.
3. DYNAMIC PRESSURE
- is the kinetic energy per unit volume of a fluid
particle. 11.
- is in fact one of the terms of Bernoulli's equation, revealing the intertidal zone
which can be derived from the conservation of
energy for a fluid in motion 12.
4. RANKINE ACTIVE PRESSURE
- when a retaining wall moves away from the soil.
- is the one that is exerted by the soil that tends to
overturn or slide the retaining wall. It is unfavorable
to stability of the wall. 13.
5. EBB - the movement of the tide out to sea.
6. WAKE
- is the region of disturbed flow (often turbulent) 14.
downstream of a solid body moving through a fluid,
caused by the flow of the fluid around the body.
- is defined traditionally as the mean wave height
(trough to crest) of the highest third of the waves
LUNAR TIDE
- the part of a terrestrial tide due to the mutual
attraction between earth and moon.
- seven days after a spring tiderefers to a period of
moderate tides
- when the sun and moon are at right angles to each
other.
DIURNAL TIDE - have only one high and one
EBB TIDE - sea level falls over several hours,
SHOAL
- a large number of fish swimming together.
- a sandbank or sand bar in the bed of a body of water,
especially one that is exposed above the surface ofth
e water at low tide.
SWELL
- a slow, regular movement of the sea in rolling waves
that do not break.
- become larger or rounder in size, typically as a result
of an accumulation of fluid.
SKEWD
- suddenly change direction or position.
- equal to the negative of its conjugate.
 - to give an oblique direction to; shape, form, or cut - parallel to the sun and moon
obliquely
16. EQUINOX
15. DECLINATION - perpendicular to the sun and moon
