As a sidelight of the Rossby waves thread, there have been comments about
the non-existence of tidal bulges. As I am about to try to teach tidal
effects to an intro. astronomy course, I would appreciate it if someone
could set me straight on this. Tides as a forced wave oscillation sounds
good, but I'd like more details. Is there a good reference at somewhere
below expert level which will give me a lead?
