Harmonic Analysis of Current Velocity
From BAWiki
Motivation
Basic Concepts
Basic informations on Tidal Harmonic Analysis are presented in Harmonic Analysis of Water Level. The methods used to compute various ellipse parameters using program NCANALYSE are described in more detail in publication 
.
Definition of Characteristic Numbers
Residual Tidal Constituent Velocity (Vres)
Residual value of current velocity (computed from harmonic analysis) within the period of data analysis.
The residual is computed for permanently wet locations only.
Amplitude of Tidal Constituent Velocity
Phase of Tidal Constituent Velocity
Error in Amplitude of Tidal Constituent Velocity
Error in Phase of Tidal Constituent Velocity
Semi Major Axis of Tidal Constituent Ellipse
Semi Minor Axis of Tidal Constituent Ellipse
Eccentricity of Tidal Constituent Ellipse
