TIDES SOME CONCEPTS PART - I By Rakesh Sharma, Surveyor Marine Geodesy Wing Geodetic & Research Branch
TIDE: The tide is a periodically movement in the level of the surface of the sea or ocean, due to the periodical forces.
COAST SEA
THE TIDE PRODUCING FORCES The attraction of Sun and Moon for the water of ocean is different in intensity from the attraction for the solid earth as a whole, and these differences of attraction gives rise to the forces that cause the ocean water to move relatively to the solid earth and bring the tides. These forces are called “ the tide producing forces”. The mathematical development of these forces shows that the tide producing forces of heavenly body varies directly as its mass and inversely as the cube of the distance of earth from the heavenly body.

CHART DATUM: Chart Datum is an arbitrary plane below which low water tide seldom falls. It is a datum to which sounding on a published hydrographic chart are reduced. The tidal predictions and tidal levels given in the tide tables are also given with relation to the same datum.
Chart Datum
TIDAL STREAMS: Tidal streams are the periodical movement of water, generally horizontal in the sea or ocean due to the periodical forces. TIDAL CURRENT: Tidal currents are non-periodical movement of water, generally horizontal and they are due to many causes, such as different temperature and prevalent winds. Some may be permanent and other may be temporary.
HIGH WATER: High water of a tide at a place refer to the highest level reached by the water surface in one oscillation. 3 2.5

LOW WATER
LOW WATER: It is the lowest level reached by the water surface in one oscillation.

MEAN SEA LEVEL: Mean Sea Level (MSL) at a place is the average value of all states of oscillation, and this is taken as equivalent to the level which would have existed in the absence of tidal forces. 4.0 m 3.0 m 2.0 m 1.0 m 0.0 m

HIGH WATER LUNI TIDAL INTERVAL: It is the time interval between the moon’s transit and the occurrence of high water. LOW WATER LUNI TIDAL INTERVAL: It is the time interval between the moon’s transit and the occurrence of low water. CORRECTED ESTABLISHMENT: It is the mean value of all high water luni tidal interval throughout a lunation of 29 days.
HIGH WATER FULL IN CHANGE VULGER ESTABLISHMENT: It is the name given to high water luni tidal interval on the days of full and new moon. LOW WATER FULL IN CHANGE VULGER ESTABLISHMENT: It is the name given to low water luni tidal interval on the days of full and new moon.

SPRING TIDE: During the moon’s phase cycle when the sun, moon and earth are in one straight line, the tide rises highest and falls lowest during the days of full moon, in this condition the range of tide will be higher than the normal period. Thus occurring the spring tide.

HEIGHT OF TIDE: It is the difference at any moment between the level of water and the chart datum.
x Height of tide = x Chart Datum
RISE OF TIDE: It is the difference in level between high water and the chart datum.
x Rise of tide = x Chart Datum
AGE OF TIDE: It is the interval of time between new and full moon and the occurrence of spring tide. AGE OF PHASE INEQUALITY OR PHASE AGE: It is noted that at some places there is a lag of a day or two between the occurrence of spring and neap tides and the corresponding phase of the moon, i.e. spring tide or neap tide do not occur on the day of full and new moon and moon’s first and last quarter. But a day or two later. This lag in the response of tide is known as age of phase inequality or phase age.

APOGEE: The position of moon when it is farthest from the earth during its revolution around the earth, it is called apogee. And the tide EARTH thus occurring is called apogean tide. PERIGEE: The position of moon when it comes nearest to the earth during its revolution around the earth, it is called perigee. And the tide thus occurring is called perigean tide.
AGE OF PARALLAX INEQUALITY OR PARALLAX AGE: The greatest rise and fall does not occur on the day when the moon is in perigee, but a day or two later. Likewise the least rise and fall does not occur on the day of moon’s apogee, but a day or two later. This interval varies from place to place and in some region it may have (-) value. This lag is known as parallax age or age of parallax inequality.
EQUATORIAL TIDE: When the moon is close to the equator, the tide occurring at this time is known as equatorial tide. The two high water of a day and likewise two low water do not differ much, in other words as such time morning and afternoon tide resemble each other. With the moon’s increasing declination, difference between morning and afternoon tide appears.
TROPIC TIDE: Tide occurring at the time when moon is nearer to its maximum semi-monthly declination is called tropic tide. With the moon’s increasing declination diurnal inequality increases.
AGE OF DIURNAL INEQUALITY OR DIURNAL AGE: Like the response to change in moon’s phase and parallax, there is a lag in the response to change in declination. This lag is known as the age of diurnal inequality or diurnal age. This varies from place to place, generally about one day, but at some places it may have (-) value. DIURNAL INEQUALITY: In the semi-diurnal type of tide the morning and afternoon tide resemble each other, while in the mixed type of tide they exhibit differences. These differences between two high or two low water of a day is known as diurnal inequality. This value is maximum at tropic and minimum at equator.
INDIAN MEAN SEA LEVEL (IMSL): Mean Sea Level derived from some tidal stations at east and west coast of India i.e. Karachi, Bombay, Karwar, Cochin, Beypore, Nagappattinam, Madras, Visakhapatnam and False point were used in adjustment of Geodetic levelling net in 1910. This is known as IMSL.
