q STUDY OF WAVES.
What They Signify N Sand or
Clcuds--Ocean Height.

From the London Times; At q
meet ing Of the Royal Geographical So
ciety, with Sir Clements Markham in
the chair, DR.. Vaughan Cornish read a
paper on Travels in Search of Waves
in 1900" He first showed a number of
photographs, taken at various places
around the British coast, l. e.. Bar
mouth, the mouth of the Findohrn,
Montrose, Mundesley. and the Good
wins illustrating sand waves, usually
about twenty feet for crest to crest
and from one foot to twenty inches
high. These were found upon eStuar-
inc sand banks exposed to strong tidal
currents. BY photographing the ridges
at low water a map might be obtained
showing the strength and direction of
the tide In any estuary In which cir
cumstances favored their preservation;
where, however. the first OF the hood
tide or the last of the ebb tide ran
strongly these riwges were washed Hat.
and the sand banks dried smooth and
featureless. Such sand ridges, which
were not to be COMPOUNDED with the or
binary ripple Of current mark on the
surface of sand banks In streams, re-
quired for their production a swift cur
rent with sufficient depth of water, and
they originated from the condition OF
unstable equilibrium which existed
when the lower layers Of water were
funny charged with sand in eddying
suspension.
Other Photographs illustrated the
geometrical patterns of rippe-marking
| produced by the waves, comprising
parallel stripes, parallelographs, and
hexagons, but not triangles or peta-
CONS. There were also pictures Of rip
| pies in the clouds, the similarity OF
which to the sand ripplos was well
brought out when the negative OF the
photograph was viewed upside down,
and of waves and ripples In snow taxi
en- by the lecturer In Canada. In the
north Atlantic he meaSared some
waves forty feet high in storm. These
were exceptional, but waves OF over
thirty feet were common, thocgh the
average height was probably not more
tina neighteen feet He pointed out that
1t was more important from the practi-
cal point OF view to know the height
of what might be called the ordinary
maximum" wave than merely the av-
