"The Harmonic Constants that Frank posted, were meant to be generic for the Normandy Coast rather than for any specific location.
So I wondered how would they compare to a modern day tide prediction at locations near to the D_Day battle - that took place 75 years ago."
I wondered the same thing. I'm inclined to believe that many of the minor harmonics are driven by noise in the input data. Thank you so much for running up that comparison. Sorry I didn't get back to yesterday, the 75th anniversary of D-Day itself.
