Tide direction refers to the movement or flow of water caused by the changing tide. It can be incoming (flood tide) when water is rising towards the shore, or outgoing (ebb tide) when water is receding away from the shore. The direction of the tide is influenced by various factors such as the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, wind patterns, and the shape of the coastline.
An aegir is a tidal bore - a natural phenomenon in which the leading edge of the incoming tide forms a wave of water which travels up a river or narrow bay against the direction of the river or bay's current.

The East River is a tidal strait, not a real river, which connects on both ends to the Atlantic Ocean. As such, East River's tidal currents change the direction usually four times a day, flowing north and then turning around and going south. There are days however when the directions will be changed only three times in a 24 hour period. The tide reversal times change with the position of the moon and the sun, so there are no fixed times for the direction changes.
yes.
A "bend" is a river is where it makes a significant change in its direction. Big Bend NP is located in an area where the Rio Grande changes its direction from southeast to northeast -- ie, a "big" bend in the river.
The term for the place where a tide meets a river current is called the "tidal bore." This phenomenon occurs when the rising tide enters a river channel, causing the water to flow upstream against the current.
Yes it does. The Neuse River which is at it's widest point in New Bern is affected by the tide. This brackish river experiences a low and high tide daily. Pilons in the river are marked as such as well as the clearance indication on the bridge (the one for boats).
