Transcription: The seas are constantly in motion, stirred by winds, the spinning of the earth and the gravitational pull of the moon. Tides depend on the moon's position, on ocean currents and on the configuration of coastlines. Tidal flows may raise sea level by several metres. Waves are generated by the wind. Their intensity ranges from mild to incredibly powerful.
