Ah, the parametric circle.

Here are some other interesting parametric "plots":

x=cos<sup>3</sup>(t) y=sin<sup>3</sup>(t) will give you an astroid

Try looking up cardioids, they can be ineteresting too.

YEAH, yeah? i'll move this PHil0 D`bait to
http://www.nw.uklinux.net/bbs/messages/3626.html
in the mean while say in effect that once
the moving arm releases the bag containing
the can of tennis balls, and that bag inpacts
to a sudden stop on some FIRM cement
oscillations upon the skin of the balls
are expected to occure {leap of logic}
this motion now called TIDES of Earth
ripple across the surface mostly and some
discription of the effect will be attempted
in General under the titke "TIDE".
however Tide of Earths {to much in my
opinion for earthlings to comprehend} so
I'll in post 1 refer to the ripples as Moon Tide.
and address my question to the MoonLing
rather than the Earths {well never mind}

I once had a similar idea, I called it earthrobs. It actually got me into graduate school. Luckily, by the time I got there, I'd learned so much more and went on to other things--I read some work by Vincent Courtillot that, had I read it earlier, I probably would have said, "so it's solved already," and forgot about it.

Reliable tidal measurements only go back a few hundred years, timing-wise. I am unaware of any geological record that could be reliably interpreted as indicating the magnitude of the tides, irrespective of phase, but I can imagine that that might be possible, given favorable circumstances.

Hmmm,...yes, why do you want to know?

Seriously, it's biological malformations, technically. But the general study of monsters is what I'm implying.

I sure dont have a good grip on this
However i'll start here after

seeing the drawings #3 at the library
{remember i dont get the .pic here}
showing the tidal bulge rotated CCW
from the moons position by
"the rotation of the Earth" {ha ha ha}[LOL]
listen my retort to "THAT" repot(ed) FACTs
THIS it dont show the "BIG" Clam tide twisted
almost 7 days befor the SUN con Moon days?

first aproximations =? MATH ?= M.d=M_o*t^Q where Q=(1to4mm)/60b
E_a=4.5e9 M_o about 4.5e9*13ish=60billionth Lunar orbital [60]<pre>
at rate 1: 1mm/M_o then 60e9*1mm= 60e9mm{60billion milimeters}
{ 60 million Meters / 60 thousand Kilometers /in/ 450,000km }
{{ perhaps some numbers like 60/450 as a % = 13&1/3% }}
....:....1....:....2....:....3....:....4....:....5 ....:....6
-60 at this scale of comprehension using ToSeek #'$
-30 the PLOT appears linier allthough Moon "DEPARTS"
-0 its supposed to be "NOT" this way. .

10:42 A.M.HUb'= I read somewher that using
Devonian corals that the Earth Year can be

so this line above would suggest that the

I have never seen numbers posted for the rate

The usual interpretation is that the earth's rate of rotation has slowed, so that there are fewer (but longer) days per year. That doesn't tell you how large the tides were, though. Still, if the moon were closer, the tides would be larger.

HUb' Astoria Oregon? where the Columbia River Dumps into Pacific Ocean
I went to the NOAA Predicted Water Level Data page, and ran the numbers for Astoria OR (Station ID 9439040), and it showed, for 11/30/2001, a low tide of -0.25 meters relative to MLLW, and a high of 2.90. That's full moon. Seven days from now, last quarter moon, it showed a low of about 0.10 and a high of 2.50. For new moon, it showed -0.25/3.00, then for the next first quarter it will be 0.30/2.30

So, it seems that the predictions are that the greatest low tides do occur close to the new and full moon. I think that the predictions are pretty accurate. Here is a webpage that shows current water levels compared to predicted.

Why do you say that they are shifted seven days?

BTW, here is an interesting article on the Perigean Spring Tides, which discusses the effect of the moon's perigee on tides, but mentions that tidal range is largest during new or full moon.

You don't get an instantaneous rate of change, ever. Modern laser measurements come close, but the ancient corals give rotation rates, not rate of change of rotation--and, as you can expect, the data is not perfect.

You calculate the rotation rate for one epoch, and compare it to another--that gives you the rate of change of rotation.

The rate of change has apparently slowed and sped, over the hundreds of millions of years. If the mass of the earth is realigned (perhaps by plate tectonics or mantle convection) so as to change the moment of inertia of the earth, the earth will tend to speed up or slow down. This is another effect, in addition to the lunar tidal slowing.
