wave base

They found that "the ocean floor actually didn't ever get shallower than 1,300 meters below the wave base."

Both the thick and thin Stephen formation were deposited below wave base.

It probably lived in deep waters, below the waves (perhaps a great deal below the wave base).

The wave base is the maximum depth at which a water wave's passage causes significant water motion.

The storm wave base refers to the depths beneath storm-driven waves and can be much deeper.

For water depths larger than the wave base, bottom sediments are no longer stirred by the wave motion above.

It was deposited in a deep-water, distal shelf setting, well below wave base".

The trace fossil assemblages in the formation suggest that it was below wave base and reasonably well oxygenated.

Most contourites are formed in continental rise to lower slope settings, although they may occur anywhere that is below storm wave base.

Deeper than wave base is defined as deep water: i.e. too deep for waves to interact with the seafloor.

The wave base, which is the depth of influence of a water wave, is about half the wavelength.

Upper Shoreface refers to the portion of the seafloor that is shallow enough to be agitated by everyday wave action (wave base).

It is only formed at a depth of water below fair-weather wave base and above storm-weather wave base.

It is usually formed by redeposition below normal fair weather wave base delivered offshore by flooding rivers and shoals by large waves.

Lower Shoreface refers to the portion of the seafloor or sedimentary depositional environment that lies below everyday wave base (see also upper shoreface).

"The Harold Song" includes relaxed vocals with a sawtooth wave base synthesizer side-chained to a kick drum over a piano synth.

The rocks were deposited in shallow seas, in the photic zone yet below storm wave base, yet were deposited in predominantly anoxic conditions.

What seems to be important for the preservation of radiolarian oozes is that they are deposited well below the storm wave base and below the jets of erosive surface currents.

However the overall environment of deposition for the formation is in a shallow, tropical marine setting that is located between the storm wave base and the fair weather wave base.

According to one currently popular hypothesis, it probably lived in deep waters, below the wave base (perhaps a great deal below the wave base); this means it could not have photosynthesised.

The fair weather wave base refers to the depth beneath the waves under normal conditions and the portion of the seafloor that is agitated by this everyday wave action is known as the Upper shoreface.

There are typically two wave bases, the fair weather wave base (FWWB) and the storm wave base (SWB).

Is it possible that these cetaceans and odontocetes, hailing from beyond the wave base and thus unfamiliar with the self-generated noise of moving sediment, become disoriented by these acoustic signals on the same wavelength as their own systems?

Shallow water is defined as between the surf-zone and the coast, whereas intermediate water is defined as between the surf zone and wave base (where the waves just interact with the bottom and no more, usually about 80m water depth with 10 second swells).
