Emergence definition

A tidal bore is a phenomenon that arises from the interaction between a system, where the organized arrangement of interrelated parts that work together over time, and a wave, where a disturbance transfers energy through a medium, resulting in a visible wave front that forms at the point where the tidal current meets the shore.
