What is the Tidal Bore?
The Tidal Bore is a sudden rise in the water in a river or estuary. This elevation is caused by the wave of the rising tide during high tides. The most spectacular tidal bores occur at the mouths of the Qiantang (China), the Severn (England) and the Amazon (Brazil). Physically, the tidal bore corresponds to the propagation of a projection along the course of a river or a canal.
