#Scientists Crack the Code of #China’s Mysterious “#MatrixTide”
Last year, spectators along #Qiantang River witnessed an unusual sight: waves arranging themselves into grid formation.
This striking pattern, named “matrix tide,” arose from the river’s famous tidal bores that rush upstream against the flow. In this case, two undular bores — shockwave-like surges that spread outward like ripples on #water — traveled in different directions and collided, creating the effect.

Scientists Crack the Code of China’s Mysterious “Matrix Tide”
A University at Buffalo study describes two-dimensional wave patterns, including undular bores, that propagate in two directions. Last year, spectators along China’s Qiantang River witnessed an unusual sight: waves arranging themselves into a grid-like formation. This striking pattern, named t
