An aerial view shows Saltstraumen, the world's strongest tidal current, near Bodo, Norway, on September 21, 2024. Powerful whirlpools swirl through Saltstraumen as tidal currents surge between the Saltenfjord and Skjerstadfjord. Every six hours, nearly 400 million cubic meters of water rush through the 3-kilometer-long, 150-meter-wide strait, reaching speeds of up to 20 knots (10 meters per second), creating one of the world's strongest tidal flows.

Villagers fish on their boat near the Chao Phraya Dam in Chai Nat province, north of Bangkok, on August 27, 2024. The dam releases water due to heavy flooding in northern Thailand. People living near waterways in 11 provinces of the Chao Phraya river basin, including Bangkok, receive warnings of rising water levels due to the deluge of runoff arriving from the North. The department expects the flow of the Chao Phraya River to rise to 1,400 cubic meters per second in Nakhon Sawan and 1,700 cubic meters per second at the Chao Phraya barrage dam, downstream in adjoining Chai Nat province, on Friday. Therefore, the department discharges water from the dam in the range of 900-1,400 cubic meters per second. The discharge rate is 917 cubic meters per second there on Tuesday morning, up from 700 cubic meters per second on Monday.
