  1. Week 21

  2. 1. The global winds that are located just north and south of the equator are called the Rip currents Westerlies Trade winds Monsoons

  3. 2. The direction of water particles in a wave in deep water can best be describe as moving forward in a long ellipse up and down in a circle

  4. 3. The relatively weak, irregular current produces when the water from breaking waves is pulled back to deep water is: Drift An undertow A longshore current A rip current

  5. 4. Which of the following occurs only during the full and new moon phases? Spring tides Neap tides Tidal oscillations Tidal bores

  6. 5. Submarine canyons most likely formed due to erosion by: Turbidity currents Volcanic activity Transform faulting Trench formation

  7. 6. Scientists obtain deep-ocean core samples in order to analyze: deep-ocean basin currents Composition of ocean floor sediments Deep-ocean temperatures Composition of sea-water

  8. 7. When a river enters the ocean through a long bay, the ocean tide may rush into the river creating a surge of water called a tidal Bore Oscillation Range Flat

  9. 8. Which of these factors is used to calculate wave speed? Wind speed Wave length Water depth Wave height

  10. 9. Tides are primarily due to : Density differences Currents Salinity differences Gravitational attraction

  11. 10. Which of the following is a part of three other oceans? Antarctic Ocean Artic Ocean Indian Ocean Atlantic Ocean
