Summary[edit]

Description
English: The M2 tidal constituent. Amplitude is indicated by color ( Which amplitude is meant: peak or peak-to-peak amplitude?), and the white lines are cotidal differing by 30° (a bit over 1 hr). The curved arcs around the amphidromic points show the direction of the tides, each indicating a synchronized 6 hour period.
Deutsch: Gezeiten als in den Weltmeeren umlaufende Wellen. Die Amplitude der Pegelschwankungen ist farbkodiert ( Ist hier die Amplitude oder der Tidenhub gemeint?). Es gibt mehrere Knotenpunkte verschwindender Amplitude (Amphidromie), um die die Wellen herumschwappen. Linien gleicher Phase (weiß, Phasenabstand 30° (etwas mehr als 1 Stunde) Kotidallinien) umgeben die Knotenpunkte büschelförmig. Die Wellenausbreitung erfolgt senkrecht zu diesen Linien. Die Richtung ist durch Pfeile angedeutet.
