A ripple tank can be used to measure and calculate frequency, wavelength and the speed of waves on the surface of the water. A ripple tank is a transparent shallow tray of water with a light ...

The two sets of ripples indicate the former presence of shallow water that was open to the Martian air, not covered by ice as some climate models would require. Ripples are one of the clearest ...
