Alannah Bennie James Davis Andriy Goltsev Bruno Pinto Tracy Tran Outline Introduction Motivation Methodology Results Impact Problem We want to harness the power of tidal currents. Waves. A . Wave. is a . rhythmic. . movement. that carries . energy. through matter or space.. In oceans, waves move through . seawater. Waves. Caused by. :. Wind. Earthquakes. Gravitational force of the Moon and Sun.. By . Nate Lentz. (With a sneak Peak. of Central Park!). Gracie. . Mansion. Gracie Mansion was built in 1799, making it the oldest architecture in this photo essay. Belvedere castle. Belvedere Castle* was built in 1869 and is in central park. Parker MacCready, January 2011. Reference: . Admiralty Manual of Tides. , . Doodson. & Warburg, 1941, His Majesty’s Stationery Office. Orbital Force Balance. Tides are forced by the sun and moon, with similar physics. The Moon’s forcing is about twice that of the sun.. May 2013. What is a TIDE?. Rise and fall in ocean levels. Most observable at the coastlines. What is a TIDE?. 2 High tides and 2 Low tides occur daily. Approx. 6 1/2 hours apart. What causes TIDES?. Moon-Earth Relationship. The . revolution. of the Moon around the Earth makes the Moon look as if it is changing shape in the sky.. This is caused by the different angles from which we see the lighted part of the Moon's surface.  . Mean Low Tide versus Mean Lower Low Water. And the winner is……….!. Measuring Water Depths. Boats, Airborne LIDAR, Satellites, AUV’s/ROV’s – Differences?. Sensor Positioning. . GPS. Laser. CAPT . Emil Petruncio. U.S. Naval Academy. Oceanography Department. Maury Project . July . 2016. Objectives. Define terms used to describe tides. List and define the forces that cause tides. Describe tide measurements and the use of harmonic tidal constituents to predict tides. Section 19.3. Daily Question 1/6/15. In your daily question book write down at least three things you know about the moon. If you know more, please write them down as well.. Motions of the Moon. The moon travels through space in two ways:. Created by Winds. Coriolis Effect- The shifting of ocean currents and surface winds from their expected paths caused by the rotation of the earth. Gulf Steam – ocean current in the northern Atlantic ocean, brings warm water from Africa to the Americas. Highways in the Sea. What forces are responsible for currents?. Wind. : transfers energy through friction on surface; causes currents and waves. Sea level. : steeper slope=greater pressure gradient=drives a larger, faster current. Moon’s Effect On Tides Warm-Up Activity In 3-5 sentences explain what you think happens to form tides. Gravity Gravity is stronger when objects are closer together. The moon will pull the water on the side of Earth nearest it more strongly than it pulls on Earth itself. . SYFTET. Göteborgs universitet ska skapa en modern, lättanvänd och . effektiv webbmiljö med fokus på användarnas förväntningar.. 1. ETT UNIVERSITET – EN GEMENSAM WEBB. Innehåll som är intressant för de prioriterade målgrupperna samlas på ett ställe till exempel:. What are tides?. Tides are the daily changes in the level of ocean water.. What causes tides?. Tides are caused by the difference in the gravitational force of the sun and the moon.. What is tidal force?. What celestial object is attracted to the Earth?. The Moon. What celestial object is the Earth attracted to?. The Sun. Effect of the moon on the Earth. The Moon’s gravity also pulls on the Earth, but because the Earth is solid, it doesn’t seem to respond..
