Error Analysis Procedures Used by the National Ocean Service to Compute Estimated Error Bounds for Tidal Datums in the Arctic Ocean.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2014)NOAA has an established National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON) along all U.S. coastlines. One purpose of the NWLON is to provide control for tidal datum determination at short-term water level stations ... -
Estimating Accuracies Of Tidal Datums From Short Term Observations.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 1981)This paper develops multiple curvilinear regression equations that estimate the accuracy of computed 19 year equivalent tidal datums at tide stations with one or more months of data. These regression equations are simple ... -
Estimating Vertical Land Motion from Long-Term Tide Gauge Records.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2013)This report documents a methodology that can be used to estimate the vertical land motion (VLM) at NOAA tide stations by performing an oceanographic analysis of the long-term data sets. In the near future, VLM measurements ... -
A Guide to CO-OPS SHEF and CREX Products (2001 Revised 2013).
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2013)The Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) within the National Ocean Service (NOS) provides real-time oceanographic and meteorological information to meet its mission of supporting safe and ... -
Implementation of Procedures for Computation of Tidal Datums in Areas with Anomalous Trends in Relative Mean Sea Level.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2014)NOAA has typically updated tidal datum elevations for the nation to new National Tidal Datum Epoch (NTDE) time periods every 20-25 years. Updates at this frequency are necessary due to long-term global sea level ... -
Information Systems Branch PORTS Uniform Flat File Format (PUFFF). Revision 4.
(NOAA, NOS Office of Coast Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 2003)Users of the Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System (PORTS) have requested access to PORTS information in a form that can be used as input to their own real-time applications. Until now, only a subset of data was displayed ... -
Manual of Harmonic Analysis and Prediction of Tides. [ Revised 1940 edition reprinted 1958 with corrections, reprinted 2001]
(United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1958)This volume was designed primarily as a working manual for the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey and describes the procedure used in this office for the harmonic analysis and prediction of tides and tidal currents... -
Manual of tide observations.
(United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1965)Contains instructions for observing and recording the rise and fall of the tide and for making necessary reductions to determine the datum planes and the nonharmonic quantities published in the tide tables. -
The National Tidal Datum Convention of 1980.
(NOAA, National Ocean Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 1980) -
A network gaps analysis for the national water level observation network - updated edition.
(NOAA NOS Center For Operational Oceanographic Products and Services Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2014)The purpose of this report is to provide an updated deterministic assessment of the size and geospatial density of water level stations for the National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON). The original report first ... -
Next Generation Water Level Measurement System (NGWLMS) Site Design, Preparation, and Installation Manual.
(NOAA, NOS Office of Oceanography and Marine Assessment, Rockville, MD, 1991)The implementation of the NGWLMS in the NWLON and other data collection program networks, represents a fundamental change in how the Branch accomplishes its functions. The NGWLMS, when fully implemented, replaces the ... -
NOAA Guidance Document for Determination of Vertical Land Motion at Water Level Stations Using GPS Technology.
(NOAA, National Ocean Service, Silver Spring, MD, 2015)This document provides general guidance for the determination of vertical land motion at longterm continuously operating water level stations, for the purpose of separating this signal from relative water level change ... -
