Lunitidal Interval Because of inertia, friction, coastal configuration, water depth,
and other factors, there is a lag between the time of transit of the moon over a
meridian and the time of the next high water at that place. This interval, which
varies ...

Hence we see that the age of the tide most afi'ects the lunitidal interval when the
time of moon's transit is between 7 and 8 hours."' The mean lunitidal interval, or
mean establishment, is l6 minutes less than the former, and 31 minutes less than

tide, (b) lunitidal interval, (c) mean establishment, and (d) vulgar establishment.
15.2.5 The lunitidal interval This is the time which elapses between the moon's
transit and the occurrence of the next high water at a place. The value varies
because of priming and lagging. When lunitidal intervals are plotted over a

The correct establishment is the lunitidal interval corresponding to the day on
which the moon passes the meridian exactly at noon (with the sun) or at midnight.
The tide caused by the united actions of the sun and moon is identified by its ...

By the theory, the tides follow the moon's southings at a certain interval of time, (
the lunitidal interval,) and this mean interval will undergo changes, so as to leave
