Waves 5.3 - Tidal Periods and Amplitudes

Here we talk about several factors that modify the tidal period and amplitude. The movement of the Moon. The ability of a shallow water wave to keep up. The inclination and ellipticity of the Moon's orbit.

Great video. Needs titles. I remember the Open University {OU} on the BBC used white text on a black card. It's called a rostrum shot when an image is placed on an easel then filmed or video recording is done. I will not go into Chromakey effects using a video sequencer for placing images over images as you are clearly conversant with these sort of effects. Thanks for the insight of lunar motion. Why is there a massive bulge on the opposite side of the Earth causing a second tide?

Thanks, I also remember Open University on BBC2 ;). I think TH-cam does a decent job of automatic subtitles so I just left it a that. For an explanation of the second bulge see the previous video (5.2) on tidal forces.
