peer agreement (net): +1surge Explanation: You could say "surge of water". There are lots of references to this. Here is an extract from the reference below: As a result, tide levels are rising in the Thames Estuary relative to the land by about 60cm per century. Surge tides are a particular threat and occur under certain meteorological conditions. When a trough of low pressure moves across the Atlantic towards the British Isles, the sea beneath it rises above the normal level, thus creating a 'hump' of water, which moves eastwards with the depression. If the depression passes north of Scotland and veers southwards in the North Sea, extremely dangerous conditions can be created. A surge occurs when this mass of water coming from the deep part of the ocean reaches the shallow southern part of the North Sea. The height of the surge may be further increased by strong northerly winds. Reference: http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/regions/thames/323150/3... |
