Itinerary 2.3, page 3. - On the tides.
--- 2.3.10 ---
Lusenzo astronomical observatory.
One of the places where the water is frequently still, at every change of tide, is the southern Lusenzo Lagoon, between Sottomarina and Chioggia, not far from Venice.
This is where the phenomenon of "water figures" and "density waves" can occur relatively frequently, and where much of this research has been conducted.
The phenomenon appears more frequently south of the island, preferably far from the two channels. It can occur both during rising and falling tides. But here we will only consider the latter.
In my interpretation, when the water from the Lusenzo lagoon must flow to the sea, it is uncertain which channel to pass throughthe one to the east of the island that connects Chioggia to Sottomarina, or the one to the westand remains stagnant.
Even after it has already begun to fall, in the area far from the two channels leading to the sea, it remains stagnant for a long time.

Water figures.
During my research, I recorded in photos and videos what I call water figures, real protuberances of water, witnesses of a change in its density, and which I now present on this site, in various pages of the itinerary 2.3, together with the circumstances in which the recordings have taken place.

Density waves.

Tidal frequency.
In most tidal basins, the tidal frequency is bidiurnal. This frequency becomes diurnal when the local magnetic field strength exceeds a certain level.
The same occurs in seeds, as Experiment B shows.

To record how the tide is generated.
To record the various phases of the tide, and understand how it develops, you must go to specific places, similar to the Lusenzo Lagoon. Under certain conditions, these places become like astronomical lenses, allowing the phenomenon to be amplified and seen as it really is.
It happens when many water moleculesall together at the same time, in unisonfind themselves moving, for example, relative to the Moon, at one of the critical angular velocities.
Warning.
But with the caveat that our mind censors the phenomenon, because it is new and unexpected. It can normally only be observed in photographs and videos. Except for those whose minds have freed themselves from this censorship. As happened in my case, and as I will explain in the next itinerary.
