How often are the tidal stream charts updated?
This atlas was first published in 1992 and reprinted in 2003. It does not receive regular updates, so it should be used alongside current navigational data.
What scale are the tidal stream rates measured in?
Tidal stream rates are shown in tenths of a knot, covering mean spring and neap conditions.
Are the charts suitable for both spring and neap tides?
Yes, the charts provide detailed tidal stream data for both spring (high) and neap (low) tide conditions.
How many reference points are used for tidal calculations?
The atlas includes 13 detailed charts, each showing tidal streams at hourly intervals relative to a primary reference port.
Can I use this atlas for real-time navigation?
While the atlas provides essential tidal stream data, it should be used in conjunction with up-to-date navigational tools and local observations for safe real-time navigation.
Is there a way to calculate tidal flow for a specific date?
Yes, the atlas includes a graph to help calculate tidal stream rates for any given date based on the provided mean spring and neap values.
