Ever since the first fishermen ventured into the sea, tides have been the subject of intense human observation. As a result computational models and ‘tide predicting machines’, mechanical computers for predicting tides have been developed over 100 years ago. In this work we propose a statistical model for short-term prediction of sea levels at high tide in the tide influenced part of the Weser ...

[1] We use a three-dimensional nonhydrostatic unstructuredgrid code to simulate internal tides within Monterey Bay. The predicted water surface, barotropic and baroclinic velocities, and internal tides in the greater coastal region agree with observations. The agreement is due to the use of a high-resolution mesh, alongshore prescription of the barotropic M2 tidal velocities, and specification ...

The role of river discharge, wind and tide on the extension and variability of the Tagus River plume was analyzed from 2003 to 2015. This study was performed combining daily images obtained from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor located onboard the Aqua and Terra satellites. Composites were generated by averaging pixels with the same forcing conditions. River disc...

A significant fraction of the total oceanic kinetic energy in the southern and western Weddell Sea is supplied by tidal currents [Robertson et al., 1998: denoted “RPE-98”]. The region of strong tides includes the ocean cavity under the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelves (FRIS), and the adjacent broad southern continental shelf and upper slope. The spatial distribution of tidal energy was estimated usin...

this paper brings, for the first time, an interesting modern description of the patricius’ phenomenological theory of tides and its modern relativistic understanding. Famous historians of science (for ex. M. Jammer, Concepts of Force, Dover, 1999; First edition published in 1957 by Harvard press) are emphasizing patricius’ treatise on tides, which had been of primary importance for Kepler in hi...

The interaction of tidal currents with sea-floor topography results in the radiation of internal gravity waves into the ocean interior. These waves are called internal tides and their dissipation due to nonlinear wave breaking and concomitant threedimensional turbulence could play an important role in the mixing of the abyssal ocean, and hence in controlling the large-scale ocean circulation. A...

The relative contributions of the spring-neap tides, river discharge and vertical behavior to the dispersal of eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) larvae in Delaware Bay is investigated with a coupled circulation-individual-based larvae model. The coupled model simulates larval growth and behavior along particle trajectories using temperature and salinity conditions obtained from an implemen...

UNLABELLED Collaborative care models for depression in primary care are effective and cost-effective, but difficult to spread to new sites. Translating Initiatives for Depression into Effective Solutions (TIDES) is an initiative to promote evidence-based collaborative care in the U.S. Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Social marketing applies marketing techniques to promote positive behavio...
