  2. Tide table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tide_table

    Tide tables, sometimes called tide charts, are used for tidal prediction and show the daily times and levels of high and low tides, usually for a particular location. [1] Tide heights at intermediate times (between high and low water) can be approximated by using the rule of twelfths or more accurately calculated by using a published tidal ...

  3. Lunitidal interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunitidal_interval

    Lunar data are available from printed or online tables. Tide tables forecast the time of the next high water. [6] [7] The difference between these two times is the lunitidal interval. This value can be used to calibrate tide clock and wristwatches to allow for simple but crude tidal predictions. Unfortunately, the lunitidal intervals vary day ...

    [17] [3] Shuttles brought visitors from Point Fermin and Los Angeles, and an automobile road was carved out of the cliffs around 1923, [18] and improved in 1926. [19] White Point resort was sometimes marketed as Radium Springs, which was part of a widespread early-20th-century radium fad (now known to be a form of radioactive quackery ). [ 20 ]

    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (abbreviated as NOAA / ˈ n oʊ. ə / NOH-ə) is an American scientific and regulatory agency charged with forecasting weather, monitoring oceanic and atmospheric conditions, charting the seas, conducting deep-sea exploration, and managing fishing and protection of marine mammals and endangered species in the US exclusive economic zone.

  8. Chart datum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chart_datum

    A chart datum is the water level surface serving as origin of depths displayed on a nautical chart and for reporting and predicting tide heights. A chart datum is generally derived from some tidal phase, in which case it is also known as a tidal datum. [1] Common chart datums are lowest astronomical tide (LAT) [1] and mean lower low water (MLLW).

  9. Tidal range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_range

    Tidal range is the difference in height between high tide and low tide. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and Sun, by Earth's rotation and by centrifugal force caused by Earth's progression around the Earth-Moon barycenter. Tidal range depends on time and location.
