Amazing Tsunami in Dublin Bay Ireland!

  • As I was shooting this video I could see that the water was disappearing fast! This is the 'pre-effect' of a Tsunami where the volume of water displaced by the event, (here the ship), quickly draws out all other water so seabed goes dry and then very quickly fills again with the tsunami wave. Shows how dangerous a tsunami is and how fast it moves and can catch people out!
    I am, by the way, a scientist! It's a tsunami but on a micro scale. I'm demonstrating the effect that can be seen all over the world where ships sail on a relatively shallow draft.

      @@sxphiii_ A tsunami can be caused by a number of things i. e water displacement by a landslide as in Krakatoa, or an earthquake, or, in this case, a ship. The principles are the same - as I said, it's obviously on a small scale but the wave behaves the same.

    • @jakollee
      @jakollee Рік тому

      @@Straya09 No, technically it is not, you are misusing the term. The on-line Oxford dictionary defines tsunami as a long, high sea wave caused by an earthquake, submarine landslide, or other disturbance; Wikipedia defines it as a wave or series of waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in an ocean or large lake; earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and large explosions have the potential to generate a tsunami. In both these definitions, the emphasis is on large - large wave, displacement of a large volume of water. A "small tsunami" is an oxymoron. The Oxford dictionary of Earth Sciences gives an even more precise definition: A seismic sea wave of long period, produced by a submarine earthquake, underwater volcanic explosion, or massive gravity slide of sea bed sediment. Again, the emphasis is on massive.

    @richiehoyt8487 3 роки тому +3

    Not a tsunami. Not a rip tide. Not a tidal wave or tidal bore either, but if one didn't know about the ship, those actually wouldn't be bad guesses. It is of course, the bow wave of a ship. [EDIT: I've a suspicion that this might actually be video of two ship-wakes stitched together.] At least two commenters drew attention to the way the wave was initially 'drawing back' in a counter-intuitive way, one of them specifically mentioning the similarity to actual tsunamis- possibly she's actually 'onto something' in this, but that's physics at well above MY pay grade, so to speak. Basically though, it's just the way the ship's 'bulbous bow', which is there to give the ship hydrodynamic efficiency, is literally making the water 'get out of the way'. Possibly also something to do with the ship slowing down as it enters the harbour- in part to mitigate the bow-wave. Incidentally, I laughed along with everyone else at the ignorant- if not out-and-out clickbaity title; nonetheless, these ship-wakes are potentially dangerous for people on the shoreline (especially in otherwise placid waters). So much so that the municipal authorities in Dublin have had to erect signs warning people of the danger. These waves can be considerably higher than people give them credit for, and also, sneakier. Incidentally, I am not an expert in hydrodynamics, oceanography or piloting ships; merely an interested 'amateur'
