8 0

Explanation:

The Earth is closest to the Sun every January, but it is the fact that the north pole of the Earth's axis is tilted away from the Sun at that time of year which causes it to be winter in the northern hemisphere. B. Given the effects of precession, will this still be the case in 13,000 years?

A ______ surf zone offer more protection from waves because the energy is dissipated over a ______ distance.
Fittoniya [83]

A wider surf zone offer more protection from waves because the energy is dissipated over a longer distance.

As ocean surface waves approach shore, they get taller and break, forming the foamy, bubbly surface called surf. The region of breaking waves defines the surf zone, or breaker zone. After breaking in the surf zone, the waves (now reduced in height) continue to move in, and they run up onto the sloping front of the beach, forming an uprush of water called swash. The water then runs back again as backwash. The nearshore zone where wave water comes onto the beach is the surf zone. The water in the surf zone is shallow, usually between 5 and 10 m (16 and 33 ft) deep; this causes the waves to be unstable.

The surf zone can contain dangerous rip currents: strong local currents which flow offshore and pose a threat to swimmers. Rip-current outlooks use the following set of qualifications.
