TICON: Tidal Constants

Ocean tides, the sea surface fluctuations caused by the gravitational attraction of the Moon and the Sun, are one of the most important oceanographic processes. They have intrigued scientists for centuries, with the development of tide gauges in the early 1800s providing valuable insights into the physical mechanisms behind tide-induced sea-level changes. Since then, tide gauges continue to be developed and deployed globally and continue to be of value to tidal studies as well as for other coastal processes such as storm surges and sea-level rise. […]
