Good... waves bring nutrients and food to shore on a regular basis, exposing different ecosystems which are neither suited for water or land but both. There are numerous bird species that live on small sea animals washed ashore. In shallow areas, waves can create sand bars that protect the mainland or even form islands for people. Waves also transfer massive amounts of oxygen into water, that aquatic animal life uses. Waves also increase the absorption of CO2 from air to water.

Bad... erosion. Waves erode beaches and ocean cliffs, witness the reshaping of the coasts.

What impact does wave power have on your environment?

well, wave power is a renewable energy source so it is far better for the environment. it doesn't have an impact - it isn'tgreat for the environment but it isn't bad either. therefore referring back tot the question, no, it does NOT have an impact on our precious environment at all.

What is the impact energy has on the environment?

all living things require energy so no energy, no environment


How do renewable energy sources impact your environment?

Only in very small ways do they impact the environment. Renewable sources of energy emit no polluting greenhouse gases, so they have no effect on global warming. Solar panels on your roof have no impact. Wind turbines have a slight visual impact. Dams impact the environment of the croplands above them. Tidal power may obstruct shipping and fish movements. Wave power machines may obstruct shipping and whale movements.

What happens to the size of the amplitude as frequency increases?

The answer depends upon the conditions of the environment. If the available energy to the wave generator is unbounded, then there is no impact on amplitude as frequency increases. However if total energy rate is constant, then the amplitude must decrease as frequency increases in order to maintain the same energy output.
