Guest Bones2k Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Hello, I am a high school student that is doing a project, along with a group of friends, for my computational science class. Our project has to deal with how the moon affects the tides and how it will affect it way later in the future. We are required to have a mentor for the project and any help would be nice.

aman Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 That looks like a little more than just a start Faf. I was reading the Earth is starting to get a bulge near the equator like a big love handle. It is slowing down our rotation but I don't remember by how much. I'll try to find the article but it also mentioned changing ocean currents also because of the slowing. Just aman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
