If a new, large continent formed at a tidal amphidromic point, which consequence follows?

💡 Explanation

Tidal amphidromic points are locations of zero tidal amplitude; therefore, the placement of a continent there would alter the cotidal lines radiating outwards because it changes the basin geometry influencing tidal wave propagation, rather than causing other effects.

• What happens to the clay content of soil as the rate of hydrolysis of feldspar minerals increases during pedogenesis?
• What happens to sea level within a fjord when glacial meltwater discharge increases significantly?
• What happens to the eruption style when magma density decreases significantly during a volcanic event?
• What happens to dissolved silica concentration as seawater salinity increases along an estuary gradient?
• What causes thunderstorm intensification due to increased CAPE?
• A river delta extends into a shallow sea; which outcome occurs when sediment supply decreases while wave energy and longshore drift remain constant?
