Abstract:
The WWW Tide Prediction site provides a list of global tidal
heights and current speeds for specific stations. Users can narrow
the search criteria on a regional basis or opt to select from the
complete list of tidal or current speed sites. The site also contains
useful links to frequently asked questions, NOAA's Interactive Marine
Observations site, and NOAA's Center for Operational
... Oceanographic
Products and Services. The latter links also contain tidal
predictions and measured historical records.
Regional selections link the user to a list of sites containing
both current speed and tide height predictions. Sites listed with
"Current" written at the end are current speed predictions,
other sites are tidal height predictions. Upon selection of a tidal
prediction, a columnar list of dates, times, tidal height, and tidal
indicator (high or low) is displayed. Users can adjust the display by
changing any of the several prediction options; plot size, table type,
display dates, color, and more. Similarly, current predictions are
displayed with presentation options available.
