Скачать или смотреть How do Ocean Waves Work?

Everyone reading this has probably spent some time to the ocean at some point in your life. The sand beaches, the peace of the ocean, the crashing waves... but what even are ocean waves, and how do they work?

Waves are caused by a number of things and contain massive amounts of energy. In fact, just .2% of the total energy of ocean waves could be used to power the entire world.

There are essentially 3 types of waves: wind driven waves, tidal waves, and tsunamis.
