Tides. Tides are Periodic, short-term changes in height of the sea surface Caused by gravitational forces The longest of all waves Always shallow water.

Chapter 11 – Tides A tidal bore is formed when a tide arrives to an enclosed river mouth. This is a forced wave that breaks. Tidal range can be very large.
