Quote from: Janus on 16/08/2018 15:23:19While the Moon creates the tidal bulge, how that exhibits itself where land meets sea depends on the coastal features. One of the deep delusions in the theory of tides is the assertion that the height of the tides depends on the shape of the shore.The height of the tides depends only on the size and speed of the tidal wave.The average speed of a tidal wave in the stationary water of the Fundy Bay is about 10 km / h. http://www.gulfofmaine-census.org/wp-content/images/circulation/fig7.jpg//www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU_Byg8AhKs

Why in some bays a large range of amplitude of tides.In the Bay of Fundy, the amplitude of the tides ranges from 5 to 21 meters.4-5 times the force of gravity, or every day the shape of the shoreline changes?
