      Evans, Michael; French, Geoffrey; Bethem, Thomas (NOAA, NOS Office of Coast Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 2003)
      Users of the Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System (PORTS) have requested access to PORTS information in a form that can be used as input to their own real-time applications. Until now, only a subset of data was displayed ...
    • Manual of Harmonic Analysis and Prediction of Tides. [ Revised 1940 edition reprinted 1958 with corrections, reprinted 2001] 

      Schureman, Paul (United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1958)
      This volume was designed primarily as a working manual for the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey and describes the procedure used in this office for the harmonic analysis and prediction of tides and tidal currents...
    • Manual of tide observations. 

      US Coast and Geodetic Survey (United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1965)
      Contains instructions for observing and recording the rise and fall of the tide and for making necessary reductions to determine the datum planes and the nonharmonic quantities published in the tide tables.
    • The National Tidal Datum Convention of 1980. 

      Hicks, Steacy D. (NOAA, National Ocean Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 1980)
    • Next Generation Water Level Measurement System (NGWLMS) Site Design, Preparation, and Installation Manual. 

      Edwing, Richard F. (NOAA, NOS Office of Oceanography and Marine Assessment, Rockville, MD, 1991)
      The implementation of the NGWLMS in the NWLON and other data collection program networks, represents a fundamental change in how the Branch accomplishes its functions. The NGWLMS, when fully implemented, replaces the ...
    • Ocean Systems Test and Evaluation Program Data Communications Plan. 

      Graff, Tammy; Sprenke, James; Bushnell, Mark (NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2006)
      Programmatic requirements and data communi cation technology are changing very rapidly, making it difficult but necessary for CO-OPS to effectively plan for the future. The systems that are currently used for primary ...
