A University at Buffalo study describes two-dimensional wave patterns, including undular bores, that propagate in two directions. Last year, spectators along China’s Qiantang River witnessed an unusual sight: waves arranging themselves into a grid-like formation. This striking pattern, named the “matrix tide,” arose from the river’s famous tidal bores that rush upstream against the flow…
