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 flow information is most commonly seen on nautical charts, presented as a table of flow speeds and bearings at hourly intervals, with separate tables for spring and neap tides. The timing is relative to high water at some harbour where the tidal behaviour is similar in pattern, though it may be far away.
The Davenport Tide Pools are located just past the town of Davenport, California in the United States. They are located where Davenport Landing Road loops to the sea off Highway 1. [ 1 ] Parallel ridges running perpendicular to the sea separate the tide pools from each other and make them unique, producing communities in which organisms which ...

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.
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).
White Point tide pools. California gray whales were being hunted by whalers off White Point in 1912 and 1913. [6] [7] There was a seal colony at White Point in 1922. [8] [9] In 1930 a sport fishing outfit that liked alliteration promised bonita, bass, and barracuda off White Point. [10] Circa 1987 there was a marked underwater nature trail for ...
