Abstract
Ocean tides are significant factors affecting sea surface fluctuations and changes in ocean circulation. Real-time and accurate estimation of tidal parameters is crucial. This paper presents a convenient, fast, accurate, and low-cost method for short-term tidal parameter estimation. The methodology utilizes kinematic Precise Point Positioning (PPP) to determine the height of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) antennas mounted on buoys, integrating the XGM2019e_2159 model and wavelet analysis for baseline transformation and denoising. This process yields the orthometric height sequence of the measurement point’s water level. Subsequently, harmonic analysis is employed to estimate ocean tidal parameters over periods of 16, 8, and 4 days. In addition, the 16-day period ocean tidal parameters are used to predict water levels. Finally, the results are compared with the pressure tide gauge, the FES2022 model and the EOT20 model, indicating that the ocean tidal parameters and predicted water levels closely match the reference values, with differences in amplitudes and phases within ± 5 cm and ± 8° for the 8-day and 4-day periods. This demonstrates that the proposed method effectively reflects short-term tidal information and characteristics.
期刊介绍:
The COSPAR publication Advances in Space Research (ASR) is an open journal covering all areas of space research including: space studies of the Earth''s surface, meteorology, climate, the Earth-Moon system, planets and small bodies of the solar system, upper atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres of the Earth and planets including reference atmospheres, space plasmas in the solar system, astrophysics from space, materials sciences in space, fundamental physics in space, space debris, space weather, Earth observations of space phenomena, etc.
NB: Please note that manuscripts related to life sciences as related to space are no more accepted for submission to Advances in Space Research. Such manuscripts should now be submitted to the new COSPAR Journal Life Sciences in Space Research (LSSR).
All submissions are reviewed by two scientists in the field. COSPAR is an interdisciplinary scientific organization concerned with the progress of space research on an international scale. Operating under the rules of ICSU, COSPAR ignores political considerations and considers all questions solely from the scientific viewpoint.
