Tide Evripos

The Tide Evripos is a unique complex phenomenon due to tidal forces observed only in the Strait of Evripos in Chalkida (Greece), hence the name.

The strait namely the channel Evripos is a narrow strip of sea width 39 m, length 40 m and a depth of about 8,5 m connecting the North to the South Evian Evian, between Central Greece and Evia Halkida. In this space presents the following unique complex phenomenon, channel water to run continuously, while n change and movement direction, sometimes directed towards the North and sometimes to the South Evian. The systematic monitoring of said stream showed that while 22-23 days shows a change once per normality of about 6 hours, just as the tide, the remaining 6-7 days of the month of the current becomes so irregular which may change once again and 14 times within the same 24 hour! It was found that the normal stream corresponds to the nerves, ie 11 to 12 days on the new moon (NS) and a similar number at the full moon, while the irregular stream observed by squaring (WB and TT ).

The explanation of this phenomenon of power Evripos employed and the ancient Greeks, particularly Aristotle and Eratosthenes and many other scientists of the last century onwards. Significant contribution to the study of the phenomenon held by Greek Dimitrios Aegina (1926) [1] Lieutenant Andrew A.. Miaoulis, VN (1880) [2] and the British Rear Admiral Arthur Mensel (Arthur Mansel), RN. The survey was completed by the University of Athens measurements in Glyfa (1981-1984). [3]

The explanation has been given and has now become acceptable for the site is that the natural tidal wave reaching the Aegean in Evia east part of entering the North Evian (from B. Of Gujarat) and another enters the South Evian (from N. of Gujarat). Due to the different length of the route, while the natural tidal wave coming from the south reaches the channel Evripos in 1 hour and 15 minutes before the coming of the North. It is natural Southerners entering water bodies where n elevate the level of 30-40 cm and sea current generated by N. To B. After 6 hours, as the successor to the ebb tide, the conditions are reversed and created oncoming After the B. Part accumulated larger bodies of water. So when I happen nerves, so the intensity of the tide is high, the current Evripos presented normal. But in quadrature, where the current is weaker, so the configuration of the coastline, the seabed, current weather and barometric other causes contributing to the current occurs irregularly.
