Max/Min height of tideMax/Min height of tide

• Minimum HoT = 6m+2m-4m = 4 metres

• Maximum HoT = 24m+7m-(22m+3m)

• 31m - 25m = 6 metres

• Height of tide must lie between 4 and 6 metres

Express Range as PercentageExpress Range as Percentage• Difference between the Mean Neap Range and

the Mean Spring Range is 100%.• Any range can be expressed as a percentage

increase from the MNR.• Example (Portsmouth) MSR 3.9m MNR 1.9m• Difference of 2.0m represents 100% Springs• Range of 3.0m is 3.0-1.9/2.0 = 1.1/2.0 = 55%

ExampleExample

• Calculate the height of tide at 1100A on 5th June at PORTSMOUTH.

• Standard port predictions for Portsmouth from page 2A-49.

Secondary PortsSecondary Ports

• Times and heights are obtained by applying time and height differences to Standard Port predictions.

• Obtain Port Number from Geographical Index at back of ATT.

• Use Part II (page 300-323) to obtain:• Standard Port• Secondary Port time Zone• Secondary Port differences.

ExampleExample

• Find out what time the height of tide will first rise to 5.0 metres at WATCHET (531) on 26th July,

• Page 2A-102 for Secondary Port Differences.

Seasonal ChangesSeasonal Changes

•Usually caused by meteorological trends or effect of river water on height of tide. •See notes on page 2B-7.•ATT Standard Port predictions always include expected seasonal changes so no correction is required.•When comparing the standard port predicted height with mean levels the effect of seasonal variations should be removed.

•Having removed the effect of seasonal change for the standard port, the effect of seasonal change must be included in the secondary port prediction.•Tidal prediction forms (box 6) should be used to remove standard port seasonal change (change sign) and include secondary port change (box 11) to calculate final heights.

ExampleExample

•A53. What is the height of tide at 0800A on 28

February at ILMUIDEN (1501)?

• Method is similar to European Secondary Ports but time differences not interpolated.

• Use sinusoidal curves as for standard port.• Times zones do not need adjustment except

for Daylight Saving Time (DST).• Seasonal changes are more likely and should

be incorporated.• Use standard tidal curve drawn for duration

between 5 and 7 hours.

ExampleExample

• Calculate at what time after 0600 local, the height of tide will first fall to 2.0 metres at BROTHERS LIGHT (4766a) on 11th August?
