Tide Table

Tide tables are published as small booklets in their own right, as part of Nautical Almanac s, on the Internet , in some Newspaper s (generally those serving readers in coastal regions or having maritime interests) and as the output of tidal prediction Software .

Often tide tables are only calculated and published for major commercial Port s called Standard Port s. The tides for other minor ports can be calculated simply using a system of time and height "differences" between the Standard port and the nearby minor ports.

The dates of Spring Tide s and Neap Tide s, which have an interval of seven days, can be determined by the range of the height of the tide on the tide table; a small range indicates neaps and large indicates springs.

On the Atlantic coast of northwest Europe , the interval between low and high water is usually a little over 6 hours, giving one or two high waters each day and one or two low waters each day.
