Predicting Tidal Heights for New Locations Using 25 h of in situ Sea Level Observations plus Reference Site Records: A Complete Tidal Species Modulation with Tidal Constant Corrections

a new tidal model for the persian gulf and oman sea based on satellite altimetry and coastal tidal gauge observations

based on 11 years of topex/poseidon satellite altimetry and coastal tide gauge sea level observations, four tidal constituents, namely o1, k1, m2 and s2, are modeled for the persian gulf and oman sea using a time-wise approach according to the following details. by selecting the cycle 100 as the reference, 772 points on 12 paths along the track of the altimetry satellite footprints over the per...

Tidal prediction using time series analysis of Buoy observations

Although tidal observations which are extracted from coastal tide gages, have higher accuracy due to their higher sampling rate, installing these types of gages can impose some spatial limitation since we cannot use every part of sea to install them. To solve this limitation, we can employ satellite altimetry observations. However, satellite altimetry observations have lower sampling rate. Acco...

Tidal modulation of incident wave heights: Fact or Fiction?

This contribution investigates the hypothesis that incident wave power is modulated by the tide. Eulerian measurements of wave height recorded by three wave buoys in intermediate water depths (8-45 m A.C.D.), over a seven year period were analysed in a search for evidence of this semi-diurnal variability in incident wave heights. The study site (Perranporth, UK) was a highly macrotidal environm...
