What are Closed Basins?

Enclosed basins can experience oscillations due to a variety of causes. Lake oscillations are usually the result of a sudden change, or a series of intermittent-periodic changes, in atmospheric pressure or wind velocity. Oscillations in canals can be initiated by suddenly adding or subtracting large quantities of water. Harbor oscillations are usually initiated by forcing through the entrance; hence, they deviate from a true closed basin. Local seismic activity can also create oscillations in an enclosed basin.
