The tidedata
dataset contains Tide-constituent information that is
use by tidem()
to fit tidal models. tidedata
is a list
containing
const
a list containing vectors
name
(a string with constituent name),
freq
(the frequency, in cycles per hour),
kmpr
(a string naming the comparison constituent, blank if there is none),
ikmpr
(index of comparison constituent, or 0
if there is none),
df
(frequency difference between constituent and its
comparison, used in the Rayleigh criterion),
d1
through d6
(the first through sixth Doodson numbers),
semi
,
nsat
(number of satellite constituents),
ishallow
,
nshallow
,
doodsonamp
,
and
doodsonspecies
.
sat
a list containing vectors
deldood
,
phcorr
,
amprat
,
ilatfac
,
and
iconst
.
shallow
a list containing vectors
iconst
,
coef
,
and
iname
.
Apart from the use of d1
through d6
, the naming and content
follows T_TIDE
(see Pawlowicz et al. 2002), which in turn builds upon
the analysis of Foreman (1978).
