Tide tables, sometimes called tide charts, are used for tidal prediction and show the daily times and levels of high and low tides, usually for a particular location. [1] Tide heights at intermediate times (between high and low water) can be approximated by using the rule of twelfths or more accurately calculated by using a published tidal ...
Night smelt spawn along sandy open coasts and coarse sandy beaches often in proximity to river or creek mouths in north-central to northern California. [3] [1] However, little is known about the movement of night smelt in California. [1] They spawn nocturnally in courser sand grain sizes and spawning generally occurs from January to September. [4]

Tidal range is the difference in height between high tide and low tide. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and Sun, by Earth's rotation and by centrifugal force caused by Earth's progression around the Earth-Moon barycenter. Tidal range depends on time and location.
Researchers use community-submitted king tide photos to validate climate change models. This year's King Tides Project is scheduled for Nov. 15-17 and Dec. 13-15.
