What happens to a wave as it approaches the shoreline in terms of period, wavelength, speed, frequency, and amplitude?

Amplitude increases, period and frequency stay the same, and wavelength and speed decreases. I forgot to mention steepness in the problem; that increases until the wave breaks.

How does an arch form in a headland?

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
The ocean erodes the land until an arch is formed. First it would turn into a cave, though, which is just creating a hole that does not go till the other side. Then the ocean would erode it completely so it is seen from the other side.

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
I am just going to go ahead and say another questions...
What are horizontal and vertical structures (of the ocean)?

Re: Dynamic Planet B/C
that question was poorly worded... sorry ..... i meant in ocean distribution
