A tidal course is a general denomination that includes a series of indentations within a wide spectrum of sizes width, length and depth and with at least two levels of inundation. Examples of tidal courses are tidal rills, tidal grooves, tidal gullies, tidal creeks and tidal channels. The first three are small features that normally do not contain water even during neap low tide, whereas creeks and channels have water permanently. Category Landforms ... more details

Image Tidal Range.jpg thumb right 450px The tidal range is difference between the high tide and the low tide. The tidal range is the vertical difference between the high tide and the succeeding low tide . Tide s are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of the Earth. The tidal range is not constant, but changes depending on where the sun and the moon are. The most extreme tidal range occurs around the time of the full moon full or new moon s, when the gravitational forces of both the Sun and Moon are in phase reinforcing each other in the same direction new moon , or are exactly the opposite phase full moon full . This type of tide is known as a spring tide . During neap tide s, when the Moon and Sun s gravitational force vectors act in quadrature making a right angle to the Earth s orbit , the difference between high and low tides is smaller. Neap tides occur during the first and last quarters of the moon s phases. The largest annual tidal range can be expected around the time of the Equinox , if coincidental with a spring tide. Tidal data for coastal areas is published by the National Hydrographic service of the country concerned ref http co ops.nos.noaa.gov faq3.html Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agencies ref Tidal data is based on astronomical phenomena and is predictable. Storm force winds blowing from a steady direction for a prolonged time interval combined with low barometric pressure can increase the tidal range particularly in narrow bays.

Tides ranges between 4&ndash 7 m with the highest tidal range at the Elephant Point in the western Gulf of Martaban. During spring tide, when the tidal range is around 6.6 m, the turbid zone covers an area of more than 45,000 sq km making it one of the largest perennially turbid zones of the world s oceans.

Image Tide table 01.jpg thumb right A tide table for Monterey Bay Aquarium A tide table , sometimes called a tide chart , is used for tide tidal prediction and shows the daily times and height of high water and low water for a particular location. Tide heights at intermediate times between high and low water can be approximately calculated using the rule of twelfths or more accurately by using a published tidal curve for the location. Tide tables are published as small booklets in their own right, as part of nautical almanac s, on the Internet , in some newspaper s generally those serving readers in coastal regions or having maritime interests and as the output of tidal prediction software . Tide tables are only calculated and published for major commercial port s called standard port s. The tides for nearby minor ports can be estimated by time and height differences between a standard port and these minor ports. The dates of spring tide s and neap tide s, approximately seven days apart, can be determined by the heights of the tides on the tide table a small range indicates neaps and large indicates springs. On the Atlantic coast of northwest Europe , the interval between each low and high tide averages about 6 hours and 10 minutes, giving two high tides and two low tides each day. Tide prediction was long beset by the problem of laborious calculations and in earlier times, before the use of digital computers, official tide tables were often generated by the use of a special purpose calculating machine, the tide predicting machine . references External links Nofootnotes date January 2008 http www.waterlevels.gc.ca english Canada.shtml Canadian tide tables http www.getij.nl Dutch tide tables http www.bsh.de de Meeresdaten Vorhersagen Gezeiten index.jsp German Bight tide tables http www.bbc.co.uk weather coast tides UK tide tables http tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov US tide tables NOAA http www.flaterco.com xtide XTide tide prediction software http www.freetidetables.com F ... more details

The Diver is made of Galvanisation galvanised steel bands on a steel frame and is ft to m 15 tall and approximately ft to m 6 wide ref name pmsa and is partly submerged every high tide and totally submerged by spring and neap tides. The diver is constructed from approx. 300m of galvanised steel banding and 3000 nuts and bolts and weighs 3 tons. It is secured 26 feet into the Thames mud and was installed at 3.30 am in order to avoid river traffic. History John Kaufman 1941 2002 was a self taught sculptor living and working in the London Borough of Havering , East London. Inspired by prominent public artist Don Rankin to create his own piece of public art, John embarked on the Diver project in 1995. Initially he financed the project himself but later received funding from Veolia Cleanaway , a local refuse company. Receiving mentoring from Don Rankin, support from the Havering London Borough Council in the person of Adam Nardell and additional financial support from friend, John Bowyer, John was able to complete and site the statue in August 2000 in its current location.

merge Tide date November 2008 A perigean spring tide is when the moon is closest to the Earth during the spring tide . The moon s orbit around the Earth is elliptical which causes the moon to be closer to the Earth and farther away at different times. The moon and the sun are aligned every two weeks which result in spring tides tides that are 20 higher than normal. During the period of the new Moon , the Moon and Sun are on the same side of the Earth so that the high tides or bulges produced independently by each reinforce each other. Tides of maximum height and depression produced during this period are known as spring tide. Even higher than a normal spring tide are the perigean tides. Perigean Spring tides can produce unusually intense flooding along the coastal regions. Low amplitude tides are known as neap tide s. The moon is the primary source of the gravitational forces which cause the tides. The proximity of the moon in relation to the earth does have an effect on the range of the tides at any given time. In each of its 28 day elliptical orbits, the moon reaches a perigee, its closest point of approach to the earth. During these periods, there will be a slight increase in the average range of tides. The increases in the range of the tides is seen by a slightly higher than average high tide, as well as a slightly lower than average low tide. Additionally, twice each month, around the times of the new moon and full moon, when the earth, sun, and moon are nearly in line, there is an increase in the average range of the tides. These are called spring tides. Three or four times a year, the occurrence of a new or full moon will coincide with the perigee of the moon, which Fergus Wood has termed the perigean spring tides .

Form Galeolaria, is first observed by the limy tubes within which the worm lives. It contains two described species. These may form huge colonies coating the rock surface, sometimes centimetres thick. Inside the limy tube, the galeolaria worm body is symmetrical, with a branchial crown made up of two lobes, one holding a stalked operculum. The operculum is winged with spines. The operculum seals the tube when the animal retreats into its tube. The tentacles of the branchial crown are used as gills and as a way of capturing food. Colour The calcareous tubes built by Galeolaria worms are white to grey. Distribution Southern Queensland around southern shores to Western Australia. Habitat A distinctive zone forming species with its upper limit at the lowest neap water high water mark. Isolated tubes may be found at any level, even above the highest tide, only being wetted by spray. Biology The calcareous tubes built by this worm are up to 3 cm in length. The tubes are often found singly, or as complex interwoven clumps. These colonies form a distinctive zone at the mid tidal regions. They may be so thick and dense that they form a microhabitat for many other creatures. Galeolaria seems to exist in very large colonies, all intertwined, or a single worm tubes. When the tubes are uncovered by water, the animal hides away and is impossible to see unless the covering tube is broken open.
