🔍 Key Concepts

• Current Tables / Tidal Current Tables for the year in question (1983) and the correct reference station for the Hudson River near Grant's Tomb • How to convert the given clock time 1412 EST (ZD +5) into the time format used in the tables and whether any corrections are needed • Using differences for a subordinate station (time and velocity corrections) if Grant's Tomb is listed as a subordinate station, based on its reference station

💭 Think About

• First, decide whether Grant's Tomb is a reference station or a subordinate station in the current tables—how does that change the steps you follow? • How do you apply the time difference and velocity factor/ratio from the subordinate station table to the reference station’s listed maximum current or hourly prediction? • Once you’ve adjusted for time and velocity, which of the four answers is closest to the interpolated value you obtain?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm you are using the TIDAL CURRENT TABLES for 1983, not tide height tables or a different year • Verify the reference station associated with Grant's Tomb and carefully apply any listed time and velocity differences • Check whether the time 1412 falls between hourly predictions and if so, perform linear interpolation between the two surrounding times before selecting the nearest choice
