[Factor] Wind [Living on the land] Wind is not quite like sea currents or waves but may cause similar effects.

Wind can blow salt spray into the coastal vegetation, thereby selecting those species that can cope with salt on their leaves. [Living in the sea] 
Wind is felt only in the intertidal zone where it can accelerate cooling and drying out.
