Extract

This survey article, most of whose results are described in greater detail in Munk and Cartwright (1966), which will hereafter be abbreviated to MC, describes methods which aim to separate the response of the sea level at a given place due to various exciting forces such as gravity, solar radiation, non-linear effects, and weather. In so doing, it provides predictors for sea level which are formally simpler and somewhat more accurate than those given by the classical methods.
