Prerequisite: algebra 2, physics
At the beach of Anantasila Resort, Hua Hin. Not a particularly pretty beach, but that is besides the point. Got me some data on wave periods.
Of course, the ideal is to record the amplitudes as well, over a sufficient number of hours or days, and preferably where there are no anti-erosion tidebreakers. But hey, amateur here~
Here is my very well labeled numberline of wave occurrences over four minutes and eleven seconds (256s).
The data is not fine enough to zoom into, nor numerous enough to zoom out of.. Not sure what to make of this but it was fun nonetheless (I am so brilliant at producing results).
The day right after this observation I went to Vana Nava Water Park. There was this wave pool where a machine generated tides for people to bob on floats. It was perfectly regular in its periods and amplitudes, whereas waves on a real beach has natural fluctuations.
Nature has a thing for order in the chaos in the order in the chaos in the..
