Pytheas says that the Gutones, a people of Germany, inhabit the shores of an estuary of the Ocean called Mentonomon, their territory extending a distance of six thousand stadia ; that, at one day's sail from this territory, is the Isle of Abalus, upon the shores of which, amber is thrown up by the waves in spring, it being an excretion of the sea in a concrete form ; as, also, that the inhabitants use this amber by way of fuel, and sell it to their neighbors, the Teutones.

Pieces of amber torn from the seafloor are cast up by the waves, and collected by hand, dredging, or diving.

Areas with high tidal ranges allow waves to reach farther up the shore, and areas with lower tidal ranges produce deposition at a smaller elevation interval.

Tides do not typically cause erosion by themselves ; however, tidal bores can erode as the waves surge up river estuaries from the ocean.

The appearance of interference built up from individual photons could seemingly be explained by assuming that a single photon has its own associated wavefront that passes through both slits, and that the single photon will show up on the detector screen according to the net probability values resulting from the co-incidence of the two probability waves coming by way of the two slits.

This preclinical treatment involves using radio waves to heat up tiny metals that are implanted in cancerous tissue.

This added footage features massive tidal waves, flooded valleys, and the ground splitting open swallowing up various huts.

In this passage, Pytheas states that the " Gutones, a people of Germany ," inhabit the shores of an estuary of at least 6, 000 stadia ( the Baltic Sea ) called Mentonomon, where amber is cast up by the waves.

In a letter of 1652 ( That which is set up by the sword ), he urged Friends not to use " carnal weapons " but " spiritual weapons ", saying " let the waves power of nations break over your heads ".

The E < sub > s </ sub > layer ( sporadic E-layer ) is characterized by small, thin clouds of intense ionization, which can support reflection of radio waves, rarely up to 225 MHz.

The strangely small ripples on the photo fit the size and circular pattern of small ripples as opposed to large waves when photographed up close.

The shallowest section of Lake Erie is the western basin where depths average only ; as a result, " the slightest breeze can kick up lively waves ," according to a New York Times reporter in 2004.

Sometimes fierce waves springing up unexpectedly have led to dramatic rescues ; in one instance, a Cleveland resident trying to measure the dock near his house became trapped but was rescued by a fire department diver from Avon Lake, Ohio:

In effect, all three incident beams interact ( essentially ) simultaneously to form several real-time holograms, resulting in a set of diffracted output waves that phase up as the " time-reversed " beam.

Bluetooth uses short-range radio waves over distances up to approximately 10 metres.

WiFi uses radio waves for connection over distances up to around 91 metres, usually in a local area network ( LAN ) environment.

Pytheas says that the Gutones, a people of Germany, inhabit the shores of an estuary of the Ocean called Mentonomon, their territory extending a distance of six thousand stadia ; that, at one day's sail from this territory, is the Isle of Abalus, upon the shores of which, amber is thrown up by the waves in spring, it being an excretion of the sea in a concrete form ; as, also, that the inhabitants use this amber by way of fuel, and sell it to their neighbours, the Teutones.

In stage 3, delta waves made up less than 50 % of the total wave patterns, while they made up more than 50 % in stage 4.

Other variations that have existed for centuries include paipo boarding, stand up paddle surfing, and the use of boats or canoes to ride waves.

If the diaphragm is placed on the patient, body sounds vibrate the diaphragm, creating acoustic pressure waves which travel up the tubing to the listener's ears.

He stated, "... by their electromagnetic waves use we may produce at will, from a sending station, an electrical effect in any particular region of the globe ; which we may determine the relative position or course of a moving object, such as a vessel at sea, the distance traversed by the same, or its speed.

:: Ship motions-involves motions of the vessel in seaway and its responses in waves and wind.

In this way, if control is lost, the vessel will avoid broaching ( turning edge-to-the wind ), and being beaten by breaking waves.

A Captain ( nautical ) | captain waves aboard a Cunard Line vessel. In 1850 the American Collins Line and the British Inman Line started new Atlantic steamship services.

The reason services are usually suspended is not because the ferries cannot cope with the heavy winds and waves of the Mersey, it is because berthing the vessel can be extremely hazardous.

When the vessel is caught in heavy waves in the Caribbean, eight of the crew are washed overboard, together with much of the cargo.

The requirements for the vessel became more demanding: it had to have a range of and be able to withstand the largest waves recorded, while the Admiralty wanted it to be torpedo-proof, which meant that the hull had to be at least thick.

Leaping onto the Red Hare, Guan galloped straight into the enemy ranks, which broke before him like waves before a swift vessel.

In the center of the cross a sailing vessel is depicted on waves, sailing to the viewer's left.

In February 2000, a British oceanographic research vessel sailing in the Rockall Trough west of Scotland encountered the largest waves ever recorded by scientific instruments in the open ocean, with a SWH of and individual waves up to.

A total of 5 passengers died in the accident, which the National Transportation Safety Board determined was caused when the small pontoon-style vessel encountered unpredictable strong winds and waves.

The sound waves are emitted from the catheter tip, are usually in the 20-40 MHz range, and the catheter also receives and conducts the return echo information out to the external computerized ultrasound equipment which constructs and displays a real time ultrasound image of a thin section of the blood vessel currently surrounding the catheter tip, usually displayed at 30 frames / second image.

The film begins as the two surviving crewmen are rescued by local fishermen before the vessel sinks beneath the waves and are taken to the local hotel.

This spread moored ( fixed orientation ) vessel uses 100 mm, 150 mm and 200 mm bore DeepFlex non-steel flexible risers in a double lazy wave formation ( with weights and distributed buoyancy ) to accommodate the large motion offsets in an environment of extreme waves and currents.

A total of 5 passengers died in the accident, which the National Transportation Safety Board determined was caused by insufficient stability when the small pontoon-style vessel encountered strong winds and waves.

The stretching of the rode under load will smooth out the changes in loading caused by the changing force of the waves interacting with the hull of the vessel.

The United States National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health Commercial Fishing Incident Database found that between 2000 and 2010, most vessel disasters often were initiated by flooding, vessel instability, and large waves, and that severe weather conditions contributed to a majority of fatal vessel disasters.

* Wash: The waves created by a vessel.

The sea anchor is usually much larger, is intended to slow the vessel to a near complete stop, and is usually deployed off the bow ( front ) of the boat so that end is presented to the oncoming waves.

At the same time Richter proposed in a memorandum to German government officials the induction of nuclear fusion through shock waves by high-velocity particles shot in to a highly compressed deuterium plasma contained in an ordinary uranium vessel.

Cranston has guest-starred in many television series, including The Flash where he plays a white-collar criminal searching for his estranged wife and daughter ; Sabrina the Teenage Witch in which he was a lawyer attempting to free Sabrina from a contract ; the sixth season episode of The X-Files, " Drive ," playing a bigoted man who is being driven insane by extremely low frequency sonar waves ; and Babylon 5 as Ericsson, the captain of a White Star vessel ordered into a suicide mission to plant misinformation within the enemy ranks.
