Tidal Current Tables 1999: Atlantic Coast of North America (TIDAL CURRENT TABLES ATLANTIC COAST OF NORTH AMERICA)

This will be the fifth year IM has produced the annual tide and tidal current tables, which were formerly only available from NOAA. This is an important navigation publication that provides the times and velocities of ebb and flood currents at thousands of locations. Most commercial vessels in the U.S. are required by the Coast Guard to carry this information, and recreational saltwater boaters will find it the most comprehensive tidal current information available.

2003 TIDE TABLES International Marine produces the official NOAA tide tables that mariners have been trusting since 1853. These tables are exact replicas of the official government publications, no longer available from the government. The 2003 tables provide times and depths of low water and high water for thousands of places in North America, South America, Greenland, Hawaii, the Central Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the West Coast of Europe and Africa, and the Mediterranean Sea. These tables have been approved by the U.S. Coast Guard for use aboard commercial vessels.

<p>Chapter 1 presents an introductory overview of surface weather observations.Chapter 2 discusses the surface weather observation program, types of observations, criteria for specials, general observing standards, and dissemination.Chapter 3 presents the certification and quality control standards. It discusses certification of observers and quality control performed on-site, and at remote locations.Chapter 4 defines the requirements for maintaining records of surface weather data. It discusses the types of records, preparation and maintenance of the Station Information File, types of storage, and procedures for maintaining records of surface weather data.Chapters 5 through 11 focus on a specific element (e.g., Visibility is an element) and all the associated parameters (e.g., Prevailing Visibility and Sector Visibility are visibility parameters) of that element that appear in the weather report. The elements are: Wind (Chapter 5), Visibility (Chapter 6), Runway Visual Range (Chapter 7), Present Weather (Chapter 8), Sky Condition (Chapter 9), Temperature and Dew Point(Chapter 10), and Pressure (Chapter 11). Each chapter contains a similar format: a brief overview of the chapter, a section that describes parameters, and a section that defines further the observing and reporting standards for the reports. Each chapter also contains a Summary Table that offers an abridged listing of standards described in the chapter. By design, these summary tables do not contain all of the details found in the text. Therefore, these tables should only be used as an overview of the standards contained in thechapter.Chapter 12 defines the coding procedures for reports in the METAR/SPECI format.Appendix A is a Glossary.Appendix B is a list of Abbreviations and Acronyms.Appendix C lists Sensor Standards.Appendix D contains Runway Visual Range Tables.Throughout this Handbook, the following definitions apply:a. "shall" indicates a standard is mandatory.b. "should" indicates a standard is recommended.c. "may" indicates a standard is optional.d. "will" indicates futurity; it is not a requirement to be applied to standards.</p>

<p>This 130 page book describes the symbols, abbreviations, and terms used on paper NOAA nautical charts and for displaying NOAA electronic navigational chart (NOAA ENC®) data on Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS). The document also shows paper chart symbols used by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and symbols specified by the International Hydrographic Organization. In the back of U.S. Chart 1, there is additional information about the characteristics and appearance of buoys conforming to the IALA Maritime Buoyage System that is used by the United States and most other seafaring nations. Some of the changes implemented in this new addition are listed in the table below. Chart No. 1 Symbol Change Description C 21 Extended use of the dashed Intermediate River line symbol to also represent Intermediate Lakes. D 11 Added new NOAA light gray line symbol for Hard Surface Road. F 29.2 Added symbol for Bubble Curtain. Also called a pneumatic barrier, these consist of perforated pipe affixed near shore to the bottom of a body of water. As air is forced through the pipe, rising bubbles cause a wall of water to flow upward. The effect can stop or slow the passage of spilled oil or fish from passing through the barrier. H r H s Deleted entries for obsolete New Moon and Full Moon symbols, which at one time accompanied chart tide tables. H t Deleted entry for Current Diagram symbol, also called a current rose. These symbols are being removed on the next editions of the few charts in New England in which they currently appear. K 47 Deleted the text based Oyster Bed symbol. NOAA now uses the international symbol for Shellfish Bed. K a Changed description of this symbol from "Rock awash" to "Rock which covers and uncovers, (height unknown)" to align with K 11, which shows the same feature, but for which a height is known. N 12.2 N 12.3 Added typical NOAA representations for Anchorages that reference the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Text of relevant sections of the CFR are reprinted in Chapter 2 of each volume of the US Coast Pilot®. N 13 Deleted text based symbol for Seaplane Operating Area. P 30.1 P 40.1 Deleted the symbols shown for NOAA and NGA, which were incorrect. Both agencies portray Directional and Sector Lights in a manner similar to that shown by the international symbols. Q 51-53 Q 55-57 Q 59-63 Deleted entries for many specific types of Special Purpose Buoys and added the note, "Purpose of buoy may be shown by label." Q 130.1 Added the Island of Taiwan to the list of western Pacific areas, which use the IALA B buoyage system. Q 130.7 Deleted the Q 63 entry for "Emergency wreck marking buoy" and moved the renamed aid, "New danger mark" to Q 130.7. Paper chart and ECDIS symbols are now shown, as well as a depiction of the buoy in Appendix 1. S 4 S 5 Deleted NOAA symbols for Radar Reflectors, which are not shown on NOAA charts. S 18.1-7 Added paper chart and ECDIS examples for each type of Virtual Automatic Identification System (V-AIS) aid to navigation symbol. T 26 T27 Deleted entries for Distress Signal Station and Telegraph Station. Other types of Signal Stations remain. Appendix 1 Added depiction of a New Danger Mark in the appendix that shows examples of the aids to navigation in the IALA Maritime Buoyage System. A New Danger Mark entry was also added at Q 130.7.</p>
