Manual Of Harmonic Analysis And Prediction Of Tides; special publication nº98.
Year: 1958 Language: english Author: Paul Schureman Genre: Reference book Publisher: NOAA Edition: 2 Format: PDF Quality: OCR with errors Pages count: 332 Description: This volume was designed primarily as a working manual for use in the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey and describes the proccdurc used in this office for the harmonic analysis and prediction of tides and tidal currents. It is based largely upon the works of Sir Willinm Thomson, Prof. George H. Darwin, and Dr. Rollin A. Harris. In recent years there also has been considcrablo work done on this subject by Dr. A. T. Doodson, of thc Tidal Institute of tho Viiivevityof Liverpool. The first edition of the present work was published in 1924. In this revised edition tlicrc hns been a rearrangement of the matcrial in the first part of tlic volume to bring out more clearly thc development of t.hc tidal forces. Tables of astronomical data and other tables to facilitnte thc computations have becn retained with a few revisions and ndtlitions and thcrc has been addctl a list of symbols used in thc work The collcctioii of tidal harmonic constants for the world that appcarcd in thc earlier edition has been omitted altogether becnuse tlic work of mnintnining such a list has now becn taken over by the Intcrnationnl Hydrographic Bureau at Monaco. These constants are now publislwd in Intcrnationnl Hydrographic Bureau Special Publication No. 26, which consists of a collection of loosc sheets whlch pcrmit the addition of new constants as the become available. Spccial nclcnowlcdgmcnt is due Walter B. Lrbe, associate mathe- matician of thc Division of Tides and Currents, who reviewed. the manuscript of this edition and offered many valuable suggestions.
