Tidal bundle Tidal bundle A tidal bundle is a sedimentary structure that forms in tidal areas as a result of spring and neap tides. A tidal bundle sequence can be seen as a variation in bed thickness with a periodicity of 14 days (diurnal) or 28 days (semidiurnal). During the neap tide, when the tidal current strength is weakest, smaller quantities of finer grains are deposited. As the tidal variation grows larger, towards the spring tide, larger quantities of coarser material will be deposited which results in an increasing bed thickness. Bed thickness will be greatest at the spring tide and then
The Sea and Little Fishes Granny is the sea, and the other witches are the fishes (at one point Nanny says that calling Granny 'full of pride' is like calling the sea 'full of water'; water is what the sea "is"). It is based on the "ancient phrase" "The big sea does not care which way the little fishes swim", which Pratchett made up at some point before the story, and finally used in "Night Watch".
