why do some beaches have bigger waves than others??

This is for a biology assignment called Hawaiian Rabbit Hole
and it said us to choose a topic that made us go you hmmmm or new things you learned and i choosed Why do some beaches have bigger waves than others

Respuesta :

Answer: wherever the wind blows :)

Explantation:  the waves go 90 degrees to the left (southern hemisphere) or the right (northern hemisphere)

also, if it's blowing away from the beach, it causes upwelling,

which brings nutrients from the bottom of the ocean and attracts more organisms.

hope this helps :)

Well, this depends on the strength of the wind. The stronger the wind, the longer it blows and the longer the fetch, or stretch of ocean over which it blows, the larger the waves.
