Tidal bore of the Qiantang River at Yanguan on 18 September 2016

The movie shows the tidal bore of the Qiantang River at Yanguan, China on 18 September 2016. The tidal bore is seen at Yanguan, 55 km downstream of the City of Hangzhou, where the river is 2.8 km wide! The following maps present a map of the Qiantang River estuary affected by the tidal bore, and a sketch of Yanguan viewed in elevation The first movie shows the tidal bore approaching the Qiantang river Bore Observation Station (QBOS) slightly after midday. A key feature was the gradually increasing rumble noise of the breaking bore, as it approached the station, and the crashing noise when the bore impacted on the station and banks. The second movie shows the very turbulent flow in the wake of the QBOS station, during the very-early flood tide, soon after the tidal bore passage. References CHANSON, H. (2011).
