Hi. "Tidal wave" suggests a wave associated with the ebbs and flows related to the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun. These rises and falls relative to mean sea level are periodic and easily predictable. But the enormous wave generated by an earthquake is probably even less easy to predict than an earthquake and of no regular (that is, periodic) recurrence that anyone knows of. But I think "tsunami" is not too bad a name for such earthquake-generated waves as tsunami does not suggest any strong link with the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.
Answer:
The cold currents often form when the air on the subtropical high blows over a cold mass of water, then the cold air is dragged to the equator. Warm currents, on the other hand, are large masses of warm water moving further away from the equator, at higher temperatures.
An atoll estuary serves as the term that used in referring to rising of sea level which do results to invasion of the river valley which produces a nearshore body of water of mixed as well as variable salinity.
- In an estuary, there us usually mixing of freshwater river or stream aa well as ocean.
This will result to<u> salty ocean</u> mixing with a freshwater river, and brackish water will be formed.
