🔍 Key Concepts

• Slack water is related to tidal currents (movement of water), not just water height. • Different publications cover tides (heights) versus tidal currents (direction and speed). • On the U.S. coasts, there are specific NOAA publications that give daily predictions of times of maximum current and slack water.

💭 Think About

• Is slack water primarily about the level (height) of the tide, or about the movement (current) of the water? • Which publication is designed to give mariners daily current information (times of max flood, max ebb, and slack) for specific locations? • Look at the titles: which one clearly sounds like it specializes in currents rather than general navigation or tide heights?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you connect slack water with minimum current speed, not with high or low tide alone. • Identify which option is the official source for predicted tidal currents on the Atlantic Coast. • Eliminate references that are more about general navigation information or tide heights only, not detailed current predictions.
