Alaska Heights Workshop Tidal Datums John Oswald, PLS, CHS

Tidal Datum Definitions (1) National Tide Datum Epoch (NTDE) 19 years 1960 – 1978 1980 – 2001 Special 5 year 1st Reduction Datum Planes MSL Geoid approximates USGS Quad Elevations NGVD29, NAVD88 MHW Uplands ownership Nautical chart land elevations MLLW Soundings on nautical charts

Tidal Datum Definitions (2) Tide Station Protocol Primary Tide Station 19 year (metonic) National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON) Secondary 1 year Tertiary 30 days/calendar month Short 1 minute to upwards of 10 days

Tide Station Locations NWLONS 17 in Alaska About 200 in lower 48 NTDE 83-01 (April 2003) NTDE 60-78 NTDE 42-59 Unpublished Tide Stations

Where to Get Tide Data NOAA/COOPS Corps of Engineers Center for Observational Oceanograhic Products and Services co-ops.nos.noaa.gov Corps of Engineers National Data Buoy Center PMEL – Dart Program

What Does the Data Mean? Verified vs. Unverified Time Datum Plane UTC, Local Datum Plane MLLW, MSL, MHW, Station Datum Water Level Observations “Stage”, “Tide Readings” 6 minute interval Hourly Heights Used to compute Monthly Means MSL Daily Highs and Lows HH, H, L, LL
