Functionality

• The tidal clock provides information about the local tide status and the remaining hours up to the ebb or flood.
• A change between high and low water takes place about every 6 hours on the coast.
• The tidal rhythm has to do mainly with the gravitational forces of the moon. A lunar day takes about 24 hours and 50 minutes. This clock is designed so that its hand circles the dial every 12 hours and 25 minutes (twice per lunar day). This is how long a tide takes, i.e. the period of time between two phases of high or low water. The tide clock shows the highest water level (high tide) at “12 noon””and the lowest water level (low tide) at “6 o’clock”. In between, the remaining hours (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) are given up to the ebb or flood.
• Since the tides vary from region to region, it is important to adjust the clock to a geographical position.
• Important note: The actual tidal course depends on many other circumstances and may differ from the display of the tidal clock.
