The Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) is primarily responsible for predicting and measuring water levels and currents and disseminating this information. CO-OPS collects, analyzes, and distributes such data to maintain safe maritime navigation and waterborne commerce.
While CO-OPS computes tidal predictions for more than 3,000 water-level stations around the United States, the publication of full daily predictions is limited to fewer stations. Stations with full daily predictions are called “reference stations” and remaining stations are called “subordinate stations.” You can calculate tidal predictions for subordinate stations by applying specific differences to the times and heights of tides of the specified reference stations.
To access tidal predictions for 2009, as well as 2008 – 2004, visit the CO-OPS Water Level Tidal Predictions Web page. For more information:
