The Timing of the Tides

from Question of the Week, from the Naked Scientists · host Dr Chris Smith

On this week's Question of the Week, we plunge into a question about tides! We find out how the tide times are worked out to the nearest minute, and why anyone would need such precision. Plus, we ask why your spoken and singing accents may not match, and if you're trapped in the desert, is it better to drink wine than drink nothing at all? Like this podcast?
