How a Wave Begins
• How do we put energy into the ocean surface to form waves?
• Called the generating force

Generating Force
• Wind, for most waves• Pebble in a pond• Earthquake• Meteorite impact

Restoring Force
• Force that causes water to return to its undisturbed level
• Surface tension for very small waves (called ripples or capillary waves)
• Gravity for large waves

Ripples (capillary waves) on top of waves 7

Most Waves of Interest
• Surface waves– travel on the water surface
• Gravity waves– gravity is the major restoring force
• Wind waves– wind is the major generating force
• Progressive waves– Moving forward through the water

Waves
• Energy moving through a medium• Water is the medium• Sound is also energy moving through air,
water, walls, etc. • Waves move through the medium, but the
medium is not transported

Wave Terminology• Crest = highest water level• Trough = lowest water level• Height = H = distance from crest to trough• Amplitude = A = distance from still water
level to crest or trough• Period = T = time (in seconds) for two
successive crests to pass fixed point• Frequency = F = number of wave crests to
pass a fixed point in a given amount of time10

Wave Motion
• Energy moves through the water, but the water is not transported
• Individual water particles move in a circular path called a wave orbit
12
![Page 13: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. As wave trough passes, water particles begin to rise and move backward
2. At the midpoint of crest approach, water particles stop moving backward, continue to rise, and begin moving forward
3. Under crest, particles have stopped rising and are moving forward with speed of the crest
4. As crest passes, particles fall and stop moving forward
5. As trough advances, particles move backward
6. At bottom of trough, maximum backward speed
The bird, cork, boat, or water particles have no net forward motion, they move in circular orbits

Wave Speed
L (wavelength)• C = ——
T (time)
C = Celerity, speed at which a wave moves across the sea surface
Once a wave is created, its speed may change, but its period remains the same
The speed of a wave is the distance traveled by its crest per unit time. It is known as celerity, thus the “C.”

Deep-Water Waves
• Waves in water deeper than one-half the wave’s length
• DWWs move at a speed controlled by their wavelength
• Leads to wave dispersion
17
![Page 18: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Storm Centers
• Most waves are progressive wind waves• Generated by wind• Restored by gravity• Progress in a particular direction• Formed in local storm centers or in
trade wind belts
18
![Page 19: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Sea
• In the storm center, winds are variable and turbulent
• Sea surface is a mixture of waves of all heights, lengths, and periods
• Called a “sea” (waves in the area of generation)
• Waves move outward in all directions
19
![Page 20: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Wave Dispersion
• Waves from storm center move at speeds controlled by wavelength
• The greater the wavelength, the greater the speed
• Faster, longer waves gradually move through and ahead of shorter, slower waves
• This is called sorting, or dispersion
20

In a sea, the waves are sharp-crested, choppy, and irregular,with a mixture of wave heights, lengths, and periods
24
![Page 25: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Swell—very regular and long-crested waves

Wave Train
• As wave train progresses, leading waves lost
• Energy used to advance wave form into undisturbed water
• Therefore, speed of each individual wave (C) in the group is greater than the speed of the leading edge of the wave train
26
![Page 27: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Group Speed• Wave train moves at speed of one-half that
of the individual waves• Group speed = ½ wave speed = speed of
energy transport

Wave Height
• Wave height depends on
1. Wind speed
2. Wind duration
3. Fetch (area over which the blows)

Wave Terminology
• Fully developed sea—when the local wind speed, duration, and fetch have transferred maximum energy, thus creating the largest possible waves for that set of conditions
• Maximum wave height—largest recorded• Average wave height—average of all• Significant wave height—average height
of the highest one-third of waves over long time periods

Wave Interaction
• Waves are likely to meet other waves from other storm centers
• Waves may intersect at any angle• Form interference patterns

Episodic Waves
• Also called “rogue waves”• Combination of intersecting waves,
changing depths, and currents• May be responsible for sudden
disappearance of ships
36
![Page 37: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Usually many different storms, producing waves of different characteristics. They interfere with each other to produce small swell.
When they become synchronized they can produce huge waves that can overwhelm small boats. Waves can have amplitudes of between 5 and 15 m.

Wave Steepness
• There is a maximum possible height for any given wavelength
• Ratio of wave’s height to length• S = H/L• Called wave steepness
38
![Page 39: Topic 16 Waves GEOL 2503 Introduction to Oceanography.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649cba5503460f94982dbf/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
When S approaches 1/7 (wave crest angle of about 120° ) the wave becomes too steep and breaks

Shallow-Water Waves
• As deep-water waves approach shore, wave orbits interact with sea bottom
• Orbits gradually become ellipses (flattened circles)
• SWW speed is controlled by water depth• Leads to refraction and wave breaking
40

Wave Refraction
• Refraction means bending• Waves usually approach shore at an angle• Part in shallower water moves slower• So part of the wave is in deeper water and
moves faster• The wave bends or refracts• Waves end up more parallel to shoreline

Wave Breaking
• The surf zone is the shallow area along the coast where waves slow, steepen, break, and expend their energy
• Waves in the surf zone do transport water forward

The type of breaking wave depends on the steepness of the seafloor
• Spilling breaker: Top of wave crest ‘spills over’ wave. Energy released gradually across entire surf zone.
• Plunging breaker: Crest ‘curls over’ front of wave. Energy dissipates quickly. Common at shorelines with steep slopes
• Surging breaker: Never breaks as it never attains critical wave steepness. Common along upwardly sloping beach faces or seawalls. Energy released seaward.

Longshore Current
• Water is transported shoreward in breaking waves
• Waves often approach the beach at an angle• So water is moved along the beach in the
direction of travel of the waves

• Water piled up against the shore by breaking waves returns to sea in narrow currents called rip currents
