🔍 Key Concepts

• Use of tide tables for subordinate stations relative to a reference station • Application of time differences and height ratios from the Tide Table for Crisfield, MD • Interpolation between hourly heights or between high/low waters if needed

💭 Think About

• What is the appropriate reference station for Crisfield, MD in the 1983 Tide Tables, and what are the listed time and height differences for high and low water? • At 0310 DST (ZD +4), what is the corresponding standard time and GMT/zone time that should be used with the tide predictions? • Once you apply the corrections for Crisfield to the reference station’s tide, where does 0310 fall in relation to the nearest high and low waters, and what is the approximate tide height at that time?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm you have converted daylight saving time (DST) to standard time correctly before entering the tables. • Verify you are using the correct year (1983) and month (May) for both the reference station and Crisfield corrections. • Double-check that you applied the height correction factor (ratio or addition/subtraction) for Crisfield, not just the time correction.
