TIDAL CURRENTS.
Prize for Liverpool Scientist,
A prize, valued £150, awarded by the Royal Society of Arts, for im- provements in the science or prac- tice of navigation has been award- ed to Dr. A. T. Doodson, associate. director, of Liverpool Observatory and Travel Institute, for his work on the analysts and prediction of tidal currents.
Twenty entries were submitted. for this prize, and on the unanim、 ous recommendation of the judges the council have awarded the prize to Dr. Doodson.
Dr. Dandson's work on tidal cur- rents arose out of the need for pre- dictions of the times of slack water in the passes of British Columbia and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Since navigation is impossible when the currents are flowing at full strength, the difficulty of ana- lysis and predicion lay in the very complex variations of the current. In British waters the tides and tidal currents are comparatively simple, but in Canadian waters and elsewhere, morning and afternoon are very unequal in height and these daily inequalities in the height of the tide have no obvious or simple relation to the inequality in the strength of the current.
The direct method of analysis de- signed by Dr. Doodson led to very accurate prediction of the times of slack water. The predictions are published annually by the Canadian Hypographic Department and the methods are being applied to the observation & other waters.
