Summary

The objective of this chapter is to discuss some background information of tides and the idea, purpose, and method of harmonic analysis of tides. Harmonic analysis is a special application of the least squares method to tidal signals. A list of 37 major tidal frequencies is provided. The basic theory and an example for the analysis is presented. The time origin of expression of tidal time series and longer-term variation of tidal constituents are discussed. A concise equilibrium tidal theory is included at the end of the chapter for reference.
