"The objectives of this report are threefold: 1) to analyze simultaneous water level data sets from a transect of stations covering the Gulf Coast and Laguna Madre using non-harmonic analyses, harmonic analyses, and spectral analysis techniques, 2) based on the past and present analyses, describe in detail the tidal characteristics in Laguna Madre from Corpus Christi Bay south to Port Isabel, Brazos Santiago Pass, and 3) determine which regions of Laguna Madre should be classified as tidal or non-tidal for tidal datum computation purposes according to operational criteria established by NOS for tabulation of the tide"--Introduction.
