Talk:Tidal river

Completely unreferenced

This article stub is plausible enough and probably doesn't deserve deletion, but it needs some references to WP:RS. Reify-tech (talk) 22:17, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Brisbane / atlas of tidal currents

A tidal river is a river whose flow and level are influenced by tides. A section of a larger river affected by the tides is a tidal reach, although it may sometimes be considered a tidal river if it has been given a separate name. The Brisbane River, which flows into the Pacific Ocean from the east coast of Australia, is also a tidal river.

I can't for the life of me figure out why the Brisbane River is given special notice. In its own article, it's tidal nature is given no special attention to distinguish it from any other tidal river.

On another front, I'm not sure whether the Saint Lawrence River should be mentioned or not, though it does drain five of the largest lakes on the earth's surface, and is significantly tidal well beyond Quebec City, capital of the Province of Quebec, Canada.

• The St. Lawrence: a long and busy river

Tides exist from the mouth of the Gulf to Lake St. Pierre, near Trois-Rivières. The tide at Quebec City can reach up to six metres, meaning that the water level at high tide can be six metres higher than the water level at low tide.

Lake Saint Pierre is roughly 140 km upstream of Quebec City.

• . Lawrence River and Gulf - Tides, Water Levels and Currents

The Current Tables are published by the Canadian Hydrographic Service. They provide predicted times for slack water and the times and velocities of maximum current, all of which are associated with the horizontal movement of the tide.

That's a sensational resource to bait the hook for further elaboration of the present stub article (if far too primary to cite directly). — MaxEnt 18:29, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
