Explanation / Answer

1) wave frequency

frequency is the number of complete cycles per second, or the number of high points of a wave passes in a unit time.

2) zig zag

long shore drift is a geological process which involves sediment transportation, along the coast and parallel to the shore line, most of the beach sand move to down beach in a zig zag manner with a speed of tens of meters per day.

3) swell

swell is the mechanical wave produced in the lakes and oceans generated by the interaction of water and wind, so this is also known as surface gravity waves.

4)brine

brine is the high concentration solution of salt usually sodium chloride,it can range from 3.5 to 26% , it can be formed by the high evaporation rate, brine is naturally occurs on earths surface as salt lake on land and brine pools on ocean bottom.

5) melting of ice and precipitation.

these two process decrease the salinity of ocean by adding fresh water to the saline water, but in the case of evaporation it increases the salinity by reducing the water level and during freezing of sea water, salt will left over this will incease salinity around the ice formations.

6) Lower its PH

this process is known as ocean acidification, by the intake of cabon dioxide from atmoshere, PH of the ocean water deacreases from slightly basic to neutral.
