Tide Levels and Datum Planes in Eastern Canada (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the painstaking process of establishing tide levels along Canada's eastern coasts and Pacific shores, a project initiated as a side aim during tidal observations. The author was the Superintendent of the Canadian Tidal Survey, and the book covers the work carried out by the Survey until 1917. Level determination was a key factor because it provided an absolute reference for coastal and nautical charts, representing the spherical surface of the earth. The recording instruments used were registering tide gauges and open or sight gauges for protected waters. Using these, the author's team measured tide levels with great accuracy, and technical details of the processes they developed are included. Tide levels are essential for engineering projects like wharf construction and dredging. They provide a way to detect changes in coastal elevation due to geological forces, and are valuable for scientists studying the relationship between the ocean's surface and the solid earth. This book will interest anyone fascinated by marine sciences, as it captures the history of meticulous work carried out by a team of dedicated scientists. It demonstrates the practical application of tide level data, and its importance for scientific research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781528011624_0
