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. […]海洋潮汐（Ocean tides）是由月球与太阳的引力作用引发的海面起伏现象，属于最重要的海洋学过程之一。数个世纪以来，该现象始终吸引着科学家的研究目光；19世纪早期潮汐计（tide gauges）的研发与问世，为人们深入解析潮汐诱发海平面变化背后的物理机制提供了宝贵的研究视角。自此之后，潮汐计持续得到改进并在全球范围内布设部署，其不仅在潮汐研究领域仍具备重要价值，还可应用于风暴潮、海平面上升等其他海岸过程的相关研究。[…]
