I think the general issue with octapodes is the whole "doesn't even live for a decade" thing... Metallurgy can be done using vents, though that will produce sulfides rather than carbides, but the more immediate problem is the lack of wood-like material, so they would need to use shell and what little bone is available (remember, aquatic life has less dense bone due to the lessened effect of gravity on said bones), so tool use is less common and thus slower to develop...

A Rat and a Kiwi bird fulfil similar roles - small ground dwelling omnivore (eating worms, seeds, fruits, and other foragables), has a bland brown/grey coloration to help it hide in the underbrush, has a highly developed sense of smell with long noses (either beak or snouts), and is near the bottom of the food chain.

Artifexian I imagine trees with biogenic graphene reinforcing the stem, roots and branches so they don’t get completely destroyed, and they would use the monster tide to disperse their seeds. Maybe animals might develop a tidal sense that allows them to calculate the next high tide so they can flee in advance to safer land. That way they wouldn’t necessarily all be super armored, but they would use the flee strategy. Same could go for sea creatures. They could sense when the tide lowers so they could head out before they get beached. Maybe some will be armored with biogenic graphene. That’s my idea anyway.

Those are good, but they apply or invent theoretical or semi-physics-based frameworks to explain the unexplainable phenomenon of emotional reactions to music. This is an issue that plagues all of music theory, unfortunately. For instance, note how the first guy had to skip a fraction to generate one of many common chord progressions in popular music. I think the first guy’s second video on the subject, as linked in his description, would be more suited to OP’s question (I haven’t watched it just yet).

As for worldbuilding music cultures (a topic I myself am deeply interested in) you might want to simply study more in-depth how other music cultures work. Unfortunately there are very few resources about this sort of thing so you have to study it yourself. Some excellent candidates for study: 1) Western music appreciation (music theory is too abstract), especially if you can only speak English. 2) Indian classical music, probably the most well-accounted music culture in history, perhaps even moreso than classical music. 3) Arabic music (unfortunately I don’t have the knowledge to be any more specific). 4) Gregorian chant. There are some rules behind them, although things like modes functioned as a categorization method more than anything specific. As far as Western music appreciation goes, Inside The Score on KZitem is excellent. As for Indian classical music, Prince Rama Varma is an excellent pedagogue with lots of lectures on KZitem. However, his lectures do assume some basic knowledge first.

This is a video about Ancient Greek music: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lZ6FsWuYjmKEZI4 And you ought to read as much as you can about music from theoreticians centuries or even millennia ago. They had rhythmic modes, whose function gives you a clue about how the music culture itself worked.

One more one more thing. (This topic is very much of interest to me.) When thinking of inventing music practices, a westerner is very inclined to think of functional harmony and such, triads and the like. However, harmony, the simultaneous sounding of different pitches, is a very western feature of music. It can be thought of as western music’s defining characteristic. Other music cultures have simultaneous sounding of different pitches, especially in the form of drones, like in Carnatic (South Indian) music. But western music is unique in the profound emphasis it places on harmony, the structural function and the emotion associated with it. You might want to read up on medieval music, renaissance music and baroque music to look at the western conception of harmony and how it developed from monophonic Gregorian chant and improvised secular music.

Important note for tidally locked habitable moons: you still have solar tides. If youre working in the system of a low-mass star, the solar tides should easily be strong enough for tide pools worthy of would-be terrestrial life to happen. Using artifexian calculator, your high tide will be the spring tide value, and your low tide will be the neap value. Whether you use the listed high or low is not important anymore, just find the difference between neap and spring.

One technical factor neglected is that the strong tides of water are mainly driven by surface tension due to water's strong hydrogen bonds allowing small tidal effects to be amplified. This has consequences if you want to build a fictional world with a different liquid than water as without water's enhancement factor tides would be fairly weak in comparison. I honestly don't know of any other molecules with liquids that share this property either though I can't rule them out. Any chemists here?

one of the main reasons you get diurnal tides and micro tides is because the of the earths axial tilt wrt the moon, and mixed tides are (for the most part) kind of an in-between for diurnal and semi-diurnal tides. micro tides happen mainly near the poles. given they're right next to the axis, they don't have much to "rotate" through, since the entire line of latitude is relatively in the same spot.

If this phenomenon where to occure over the Bay of Fundy, then the Maritimes would get a lot less boring. To be fair, literally anything would make the Maritimes a lot less boring, including having the Cod back.

Informative video as always Edgar, especially in the various types of tides that could be generated from the interactions of the stars and moons, not to mention how tides could affect the flora and fauna of the coastlines. Not to mention answering the obvious questions before we even given the chance to ponder them, good on ya! Admittedly, I actually forgot about GURPS mentioning tidal calculations until you mentioned it. Then again, you did go into deeper into the subject than the book ever did, so twice good on ya! However, there is one question that needed to be asked: how do you map it or is it one of those " use your best judgement and what works with the setting you had in mind" kind of thing? I mean, you did kind of the same thing with the ocean currents video.

Another thing I'd like to point out is that minor moons should only be ignored if they're in high orbits. Phobos' tides on Mars are comparable to the Sun's. A vesta-sized moon would count as a minor moon, but if it's close enough, it will cause some pretty huge tides. What matters is the angular diameter and the density of the moon.

First off, it would be extremely hardy. Secondly, it would probably evolve on the ocean floor and stay there for the most part because of harsh external conditions near the surface. Tunnelling species would do well, protected from the violent temperature swings, as would deep sea fish equivalents. Probably octopi would emerge as the best candidates for intelligent life.

@@sully9767 What your describing is what would happen with a planet that was highly eccentric orbit (the planet gets closer and farther from its star). That's different than what CR Smith asked, that was about a planet with highly inclined orbit (its orbit being tilted relative to the plane of the solar system). In that case the tides would not be affected much. The only thing different about an inclined planet is that its orbit does not line up neatly with the other planets, and the gravity of the other planets has a pretty negligible effect on tides.

I'd like to point out that there will be no tidal bulge for the ocean on tidally locked worlds. That only happens because water can react much much faster than solid ground. On tidally locked worlds, the whole planet's equilibrium shape will have time to be slightly prolate along the direction pointing at the planet, so water and ground will both be level. That only applies to 1:1 locked planets. Spin-locks are a great way to have utterly massive, changing tides, with a planet that stays in a roughly spherical equilibrium shape. Spin locks are, for example, Mercury, which spins three times every two orbits of the Sun due to its eccentricity. A double planet will be mutually spin-locked! Same period, just as a mutual tidal lock, but that period is an integer ratio with the barycentric orbital period. Eccentricity/Spin-Lock (Spin lock is orbital/rotational period ratio) 0.0/1:1 0.21/3:2 0.39/2:1 0.57/5:2 0.72/3:1 0.87/7:2

@@Artifexian It occurs to me if there are other moons there may still be some pretty fantastic tides, even if all moons are tidally locked and their parent body contributes to no dynamic tides. BUT. Like in the Jovian system of galilean moons, the tidal influence of moons on each other can substitute for a small amount of eccentricity in the orbit to cause a difference in altitude between the planet and the moon, even if the orbit is very nearly circular. This can cause the magnitude of the tides to change, and that can result in dynamic tides from the parent body. Low eccentricities and/or slight axial tilts with 1:1 tidal locks may also have dynamic parent-body-sourced tides, with the tidal bulge for non-viscous fluids pointing slightly off of the average tidal bulge that the much more viscous terrain would tend to follow. If the parent body is huge in the sky (very close binaries or a moon of a gas giant, for example) then that might be enough to create tides with similar height variation to Earth.

I don't know if anyone else asked this, but if the Lunar Tides number in the spreadsheet is how strong the tides caused by the moon is compared to Earth's moon, then would applying that number to tides found on Earth give a general figure for how big tides would be if the environment where subject to the stronger forces? For example, the closest of the major moons of my planet has a Lunar Tides strength of ~17.968. If I were to recreate the Bay of Fundy on my planet, would the tidal range be almost 18 times larger as seen on Earth? If so, it'd be pretty crazy to experience the staggering tidal range of almost 288 m that would happen there. That's like, 252 deloreans high or something.
@Artifexian

Yup, spot on. The lunar tides in your system are 17.968 times the Earths lunar tides. That um very high...you sure your moon is in a realistic orbit. Check out my moon building videos for more on this. Even if it is, I'd push the orbit out a bit to lessen the severity of those tides.

Is there a series of formulas or a program you know of that can simulate tides on different geographies? I mean, say you're just tinkering with our own earth but change the sea level. All of a sudden the coasts are completely different, and the amplifying and dampening effects of those coasts are completely different. I'm sure the Bay of Fundy wouldn't have such high tides after all if the landbridge between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia were under water.

I calculated the tides for my binary planet system and it gave me tides of nearly 2 kilometers, but since they are both tidally locked, all that means is that the close side's sea level is 2 km higher than the middle side right? Since there's effectively no "actual tides," would land life be plausible on these worlds? Also Idk if the solar tides would be big enough to make a decent sized intertidal zone

Other things to look out for in your world that could potentially produce interesting little bits of local flavour are things like straights connecting tidal bodies of water especially if they have islands relatively close to the coast. You get interesting phenomena like second high water and low water in each tidal cycle under those conditions due to the appearance and disappearance of the bow waves created as the water flow oscillates in the straight similar to those you get in places like Portsmouth and Southampton due to the Isle of Wright sitting off the coast in the English Channel. They are much smaller in amplitude than the main tidal pattern but it's one of those interesting bits of trivia worth looking out for as if there is a good way to use it that can add some depth to your world, especially for example in a world that doesn't yet have mechanical clocks the sailing time for a ship might be expressed as second high water. Things like tidal causeways connecting such islands can be interesting too there are some that flood again with a shallow fast flowing second high tide very shortly after it first becomes exposed can be very treacherous to non locals that don't understand the quirks of the local conditions as even shallow fast flowing water can sweep people off it.
