Continuous Harmonics Analysis of Sea Level Measurements: Description of a new method to determine sea level measurement tidal component.

Abstract

Removing the tidal component from sea level measurement in the case of Tropical Cyclones or Tsunami is very important to distinguish the tide contribution from the one of the Natural events. The report describes the methodology used by JRC in the de-tiding process and that is used for thousands of sea level measurement signals collected in the JRC Sea Level Database
