What are Open Basins?

Open Basins are Exorheic, or open lakes drain into a river, or other body of water that ultimately drains into the ocean.

What are Closed Basins?

Enclosed basins can experience oscillations due to a variety of causes. Lake oscillations are usually the result of a sudden change, or a series of intermittent-periodic changes, in atmospheric pressure or wind velocity. Oscillations in canals can be initiated by suddenly adding or subtracting large quantities of water. Harbor oscillations are usually initiated by forcing through the entrance; hence, they deviate from a true closed basin. Local seismic activity can also create oscillations in an enclosed basin.

How to Calculate Standing Wave Height given Maximum Horizontal Particle Excursion at Node?

Standing Wave Height given Maximum Horizontal Particle Excursion at Node calculator uses Wave Height = (2*pi*Maximum Horizontal Particle Excursion)/Natural Free Oscillating Period of a Basin*sqrt([g]/Water Depth at Harbor) to calculate the Wave Height, The Standing Wave Height given Maximum Horizontal Particle Excursion at Node formula is defined as the vertical distance between the crest (highest point) and the trough (lowest point) of a standing wave. In a standing wave, certain points (nodes) appear to be stationary while the rest of the wave oscillates, at the nodes of a standing wave, the vertical motion of water particles is zero, but they still experience horizontal movement. Wave Height is denoted by H_wave symbol.
