Quiet water may be disturbed by pushing up a wave crest. This heightened level of water will be pulled down by gravity and may even go below its initial at-rest-level by virtue of momentum gained through gravity's influence. This again is the force against mass (f*m or Newtonian) model. Transparent water tanks are often used allowing the observation of the peaks and troughs of water waves to be observed in cross-section. It is theorized by this writer the periodic expansion and contraction mentioned above as concerning air movements also pertains to water wave movements and is at the root of water wave formation and movement; i.e., the density of the water increases and decreases periodically is a further component of the wave formation as in the peaks (less dense and more rarified) and troughs (more dense and compact).

While orthodox waveform models demonstrate the effects of periodic motion as a measurement they convey little if anything about WHAT a wave is, WHY it is what it is - and HOW it does what it does. SVP deals with nonobservable causes which bring about periodic rhythmic motions, being themselves effects of more primitive causes. Unless we know the WHAT, HOW and WHY we know little indeed and are left with describing perceived observable motions. As perception is of the senses it is illusory whereas knowing with the Mind or Consciousness is truth.
