Excerpt from Tide Tables for the Year 1910 The following tide tables for the year 1910 have been prepared in the tidal division of the Coast and Geodetic Survey Office. They are essentially similar to the volumes for preceding years, but improved values have been introduced wherever better data could be made use of. Tide tables for the use of mariners have been published by the Coast and Geodetic Survey every year since 1853. For the first fourteen years these tables appeared as appendixes to the Annual Reports of the Superintendent of the Survey, and consisted of more or less elaborated means for enabling the mariner to make his own tide predictions as occasion arose. The first attempt by this Survey to give predicted tides was by the issue of two pamphlets entitled Tide Tables for the Atlantic Coast of the United States for the year and Tide Tables for the Pacific Coast of the United States for the year respectively. The former contained the predicted times and heights of the high waters only for each day of the year 1867 at 15 stations, together with tidal con stants and differences for 108 stations. The latter contained similar predictions for 4 stations, together with differences for 16 stations. This marked a distinct advance over the earlier tables which had been issued by this Survey. The following year it was found desirable to include the low waters in all the predictions for the Pacific Coast, but for only one station on the Atlantic Coast, and it was not until the year 1887 that the low waters were given for all the Atlantic Coast stations. Commencing with the year 1896 the tide tables were extended to include the whole maritime world, practically as in the present volume. In order to meet the demand for a cheap edition of the tide tables for the United States and adjacent waters, two reprints have been issued, one for the Atlantic Coast of the United States, including Canada and the West Indies, price 15 cents; and the other for the Pacific Coast of the United States, together with a number of foreign ports in the Pacific Ocean, price 10 cents.
