Along the Cypress Cove Trail, Point Lobos State Park A panoramic view of Headland Cove Rocky coast at low tide Wildflowers at Pt. Lobos, 2006. The Point Lobos area is geologically unique and contains a rich and diverse plant and animal life both on shore and in the water.
The Morro Bay SMRMA includes the area below mean high tide within Morro Bay east of the Morro Bay entrance breakwater and west of longitude 120° 50.34′ W. [2] The Morro Bay SMR includes the area below mean high tide line within Morro Bay east of longitude 120° 50.34′ W. [2]
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 ...
Russian River SMRMA includes the waters below the mean high tide line eastward of the mouth of the Russian River Estuary defined as a line connecting the following two points: 38°27.16′N 123°7.91′W / 38.45267°N 123.13183°W / 38.45267; -123.13183 ( SMRMA corner
A chart datum is the water level surface serving as origin of depths displayed on a nautical chart and for reporting and predicting tide heights. A chart datum is generally derived from some tidal phase, in which case it is also known as a tidal datum. [1] Common chart datums are lowest astronomical tide (LAT) [1] and mean lower low water (MLLW).
The water stops rising, reaching a local maximum called high tide. Sea level falls over several hours, revealing the intertidal zone; ebb tide. Oscillating currents produced by tides are known as tidal streams or tidal currents. The moment that the tidal current ceases is called slack water or slack tide. The tide then reverses direction and is ...
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.
Bodega Head SMR is bounded by the mean high tide line and straight lines connecting the following points in the order listed except where noted: 38°20.10′N 123°04.04′W / 38.33500°N 123.06733°W / 38.33500; -123.06733 ( SMR corner
