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 ...
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-by-day even at a given location.
The Parramatta River is an intermediate tide-dominated, drowned valley estuary [2] located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. With an average depth of 5.1 metres (17 ft), [3] the Parramatta River is the main tributary of Sydney Harbour, a branch of Port Jackson. Secondary tributaries include the smaller Lane Cove and Duck rivers.
Tidal diamonds are symbols on British admiralty charts and others [a] that indicate the direction and speed of tidal streams. The symbols consist of a letter of the ISO basic Latin alphabet in a rhombus, printed in purple ink. [b] On any particular chart each tidal diamond will have a unique letter starting from "A" and continuing ...

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).
Tide-to-Town (TTT) is one of the city's most ambitious projects, which has a 5-year planned budget of nearly $19 million. Those who support the project point to an influx of hotel-motel tax ...
The Clyde River rises below Kangaroo Hill in the Budawang Range, part of the Great Dividing Range, within Budawang National Park, south of the locality of Sassafras, and flows generally southwards parallel to the east coast, joined by nine tributaries including the Bimberamala, Yadboro, and Buckenbowra rivers, before turning east and reaching its mouth of the Tasman Sea at Batemans Bay.
