Creekstone, английский
A quartzite stone that has been worn smooth by the action of flowing water. creep 1. the continuing, time-dependent part of strain resulting from stress; the permanent and continuing dimensional deformation of a material under a sustained load, following the initial instantaneous elastic deformation. 2. slow movement of rock debris or soil, usually imperceptible except in observations of long duration. 3. in structures, particularly of concrete, permanent deflection of structural framing or structural decking resulting from plastic flow under continued stress. 4. in roofing, permanent elongation or shrinkage of a roofing membrane resulting from thermal or moisture changes. 5. the flow of water along the interface between a structure and the surrounding soil or rock foundation. creeper 1. a brick in the wall adjacent to an arch, cut to conform to the curvature of the extrados. 2.

Tidal basin, английский
British term for a tidal harbor in which the water level is kept constant by a floodgate or tidal gate.
Tidal bore, английский
- Generated in estuaries and rivers with high tidal range and a sharp narrowing and shoaling at the entrance. manifested as a single wave, which may be breaking, that travels along the river or estuary and is followed by a rise in water level. see also bore.
- A phenomenon generated when the leading edge of a rising tide rides over the top of an outflowing river current and moves upstream in the form of a wave. this makes it a true tidal wave (not to be confused with tsunami). these phenomena are relatively rare, occurring only in a few locations where large incoming tides are funneled into a shallow narrowing river via a broad bay. the biggest in north america occurs in the otherwise lazy shubenacadie river, off the bay of fundy where the tidal range is about 12 meters (40 feet). the shubenacadie bore races upstream at a speed as high as 50 km/h (30 mph) and can rise to a height of 5 meters (16 feet) but is usually less. it has claimed the lives of several tourists who were in the riverbed when it came in. the word derives from old norse bara, meaning wave or swell. (also eagre.)
Tidal current, английский
- Alternating horizontal movement of water in coastal areas, associated with the rise and fall of the tide as the earth rotates. the rise and fall is caused by gravitational forces exerted by the moon and the sun. unlike ocean currents, tidal currents chang
- Приливное течение
- Horizontal movement of water caused by the influence of sun and moon. also tidal stream.
- Also called tidal stream. the flow of water caused by the rising and lowering tidal waters.
Tidal current; flood current, английский
Tidal cycle, английский
As the water moves away from the shore and gets shallower, the tide is said to be going out, ebbing, or on the ebb. the moment at which the current begins to reverse direction and has no motion is known as turn of the tide or slack water. and as it comes back towards the shore the tide is coming in, rising, or on the rise.
Tidal datum, английский
Mean low-water level, taken as the reference point from which all other heights and depths are measured or predicted.
Tidal day, английский
One complete tidal cycle.
Tidal diamond, английский
