Modelling system for tides for the Northwest Atlantic Coastal Ocean

This report describes a tidal prediction system developed for the north-west Atlantic coast from Davis Strait to Cape Cod. The system integrates a high-resolution numerical tidal model with observational sea-level data sets and creates spatially varying predictions of tidal elevation & currents for the whole region. The modelling system consists of running a forward time-stepping non-linear model that predicts the tides and a linear inverse model that computes the elevation boundary conditions that minimize the difference between the selected observations & the model predictions. The performance of the model is quantified by region&by observation station.
