Shows the dynamic interaction of two geologic agents: rocky landmasses and the energy of the ocean. Aspects of waves and their types, parts, movement, and impact on the shore are illustrated. Also covers shoreline characteristics, currents, sea barriers, tides, and how the greenhouse effect could impact sea level and coastal lands.

"This program explains the principles of wave generation and motion and examines ocean/coastal landform interactions. Topics include: tsunamis, erosion, tidal action, wave refraction, sedimentary (sand) transport and deposition, longshore currents and drift, effects of human intervention on this environment (dams, breakwaters, sea-walls), and sea level changes from greenhouse effect."@en
"This program explores the motion of water and how waves are generated. Beaches are an important part of the geology of the coast, where sand is in constant motion, depending on winds, tide, currents, waves, and human interaction."
