Abstract
A numerical tidal model using equations developed by Hansen (1952) and Yuen (1967) is automated to the point where a potential user need not undertake extensive reprogramming. The user adds to the program only those cards needed to specify tides at input points as a function of time; the application of the relevant calculations at each grid point being controlled by an integer matrix that corresponds to the inlet boundary. A sample problem is covered in detail and applications of the model to the M₂ tide of the Gulf of California, and to a hypothetical mean tide in Cook Inlet are shown.
