Tidal characteristics near the Chinese Zhongshan Station in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica

A permanent tidal station was installed at the Chinese Zhongshan Station in Feb. 2010. Harmonic constants of 170 tidal constituents were obtained from harmonic analysis of the first year’s data. The results of the eight main constituents showed good agreement with those of two tidal models. Tidal ch...

Description
Summary:A permanent tidal station was installed at the Chinese Zhongshan Station in Feb. 2010. Harmonic constants of 170 tidal constituents were obtained from harmonic analysis of the first year’s data. The results of the eight main constituents showed good agreement with those of two tidal models. Tidal characteristics, such as tide type, diurnal inequality, tidal range, and water levels were also analyzed.
