WaterWave
A
WaterWave
is a raised ridge of water moving along the surface of a body of water. The
WaterWave
moves in a direction approximately transverse to the crest line of the wave. The
patient
of the
WaterWave
is successive regions of water, which do not travel in the direction of the wave or with it.

BreakingWave
A
BreakingWave
occurs when water in a
WaterWave
moves at different speeds as it approaches a
SurfZone
. The water at the top of the wave continues as speed at the bottom of the wave slows, causing the top to 'break' and fall forward from the wave. The water at the top of the wave ceases to be part of the
WaterWave
after the water falls.
