How to use or fill out tidal prediction form with our platform
- Click ‘Get Form’ to open the Tidal Prediction Form in the editor.
- Begin by entering the 'Standard Port' and its corresponding number (nr). This is essential for identifying the primary location for tidal predictions.
- Next, input the 'Date' for which you are predicting tides. Ensure this is accurate as it affects all subsequent calculations.
- Fill in the 'Secondary Port' and its number (nr) if applicable. This allows for comparative analysis between two locations.
- Specify the 'Time Zone' relevant to your ports to ensure correct timing of tidal events.
- Proceed to fill out the LOW and HIGH Water sections, including times and heights. Use the provided graphs for accurate height predictions based on rise/fall durations.
- Complete any additional fields such as seasonal changes, corrected heights, and interpolation of height differences as needed.

How to calculate tide range?
Mean tidal range is calculated as the difference between mean high water (i.e., the average high tide level) and mean low water (the average low tide level).
How to calculate tide prediction?
An estimate of tide height at a time is possible using the rule of twelfths. In this method the tidal range is divided by twelve and it is assumed that the 1/12 of the range flows in the first hour, another 2/12 in the second hour, another 3/12 in the third hour, and so on.
What is the tide prediction method?
The methods for the prediction of the tides may be classified as harmonic and nonharmonic. By the harmonic method the elementary constituent tides, represented by harmonic constants, are combined in to a composite tide.
How are tide levels predicted?
Because the movements of the earth, moon, and sun are predictable, tide characteristics such as tide height, zero point, and mean lower low-water level are predictable. Tide height is usually measured from the low-water mark, which is considered the zero point.
How are tidal predictions made?
By the nonharmonic method the predictions are made by applying to the times of the moons transits and to the mean height of the tide systems of differences to take account of average conditions and various inequalities due to changes in the phase of the moon and in the declination and parallax of the moon and sun.

How to calculate factor in tide calculation?
Factor = tidal range today / tidal range at mean springs In any nautical almanac (e.g. The Reeds Small Craft Almanac)
What is tidal prediction formula?
Tide-Predicting Machine No. 1 The terms of the equation, h = Ho + Sum{H cos[at + (Vo+u) - K]} , are defined as follows: h = height of tide at any time t. Ho = mean height of water level above datum used for prediction. H = mean amplitude of any constituent A.
Where can I get tidal height predictions?
NOAA Tide Predictions allows users of the Tides and Currents website () to generate tide predictions for up to 2 years in the past or future, at any of 3000+ locations around the United States.
