Evolution of the frequency spectrum of the quadrupolar tidal Love number as one parameter increases while the values of other parameters are fixed.

Notes. The table is limited to the quasi-adiabatic regime, where oceanic resonances are not completely damped by dissipative mechanisms. In the frictional regime, there is no oceanic resonances, and the quadrupolar Love number varies smoothly with the forcing tidal frequency.
