  • 17 Steps

About

Understand how science and physics look at ocean waves with our "Introduction to Surf Science" course. This program begins with a quick exploration of the Earth's weather drivers, atmospheric processes, and the creation of winds. From there, you'll learn how these winds generate ocean waves and follow their transformation into swells. Finally, we’ll examine the transformation of swell into breaking waves on the shore, and we explain the difference between a swell and the surf it produces. Whether you're a surf enthusiast or simply curious about the natural forces shaping our oceans, this course offers a captivating blend of meteorology, oceanography, and physics, in words that anyone can understand.
