Three factors determine how high the waves in a place will

Geography
1 answer:
adell [148]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

There are three factors wind that determine the size of the wave: 1) the speed of the wind, 2) the distance over which the wind has blown, and 3) the length of time that the wind has blown. The greater each of these factors, the bigger the wave.

Explanation:

The speed of the wind is one determing factor of how large the wave will be because if the wind is higher, then (depending on where it's facing) it CAN make the waves higher if it is going in the same direction. And same does 2) and 3) also matter, the length also matters because then for that time, there will be large waves, and for 2), the distance also matters, because if you are in a place (on the shore) where there was high wind towards you for some time, then after some time, you will see large waves, but if you are not, then you will see normal waves.

Please help me determine the answer to question two of my Seismic Interpretation homework. Thank you in advance
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • A seismic interpretation s needed to understand the data that is generated from the earthquake waves to understand the subsurface observations. The seismic attributes like the amplitude, phase, wave frequency are used in interpretation but most of them are based on attributes of amplitudes.
  • Instantaneous frequency is used to determine the thickness in beds and recognition through the Subtle faults  and the Stratigraphic pinch outs.
  • Seismic stratigraphy is another field that is based on the depositional bedding planes of the earth's rocks mass fixed in there geologic history. Various types of techniques exist in this framework <u>like flooding surfaces  maximum flooding surfaces   and the erosion surfaces.</u>
