Answer:

A tidal bore is a rare natural phenomenon in which an incoming tide creates a wave of water that travels up along a river or a narrow bay causing water to flow against the river's current. Tidal bores occur in relatively few locations worldwide.

Tidal level in the Chesapeake Bay is not affected by moon phases. During the full and new moons, the high tidal level should be the highest. During 1st and 3rd quarter moons, the high tides should be the lowest.

Answer:

Coriolis effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is originated from the force that is generated due to the rotation of the earth. This is commonly known as the Coriolis force. This force is responsible for the formation of clockwise and anticlockwise wind patterns in the northern and the southern hemisphere respectively.

There are various convection cells that are formed in different regions on earth. As the wind blows from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure, on a large scale, and at the same time, the earth also is rotating, so its path gets curved or bends, due to the effect of Coriolis force.

Thus, the apparent bending of the wind while blowing from one place to another is called the Coriolis effect.
