🔍 Key Concepts

• Tide Tables organization for U.S. East Coast secondary ports • How to use Ocracoke, Ocracoke Inlet, NC as a secondary station referenced to the primary port • Applying time and height corrections from the reference station to the secondary station

💭 Think About

• Identify the correct reference station for Ocracoke and find the high and low waters around 0630 EST on 5 March 1983 at that reference station first • Determine whether 0630 at Ocracoke is nearer to a high water, low water, or in the rising/falling portion of the tide curve, then think about how that compares to the reference station time • After applying the time correction to find the corresponding time at the reference station, use the height correction factors to adjust the predicted height from the reference station to Ocracoke

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you are using the correct year (1983) and month (March) in the Tide Tables for both the reference and secondary station • Confirm you are applying the time correction in the correct direction (add vs. subtract) for Ocracoke relative to the reference station • Verify that you applied height correction properly (ratio or addition/subtraction) according to how it is listed for this secondary port in the Tide Tables
