The agreement of the cotidal hours as computed and observed is less
satisfactory in the larger groups than in the smaller ones as might be expected.

tailed explanation of tides is very incomplete, and attention has been largely
given in the past to the geographical distribution, usually described by cotidal
lines, and utilizing actual observations on the coasts. It will be recalled that a

Basic Wave Mechanics: For Coastal and Ocean Engineers
Cotidal lines, which are lines connecting points that have a maximum surface
elevation at the same instant, can be determined from Eq. 9.24. Maximum surface
elevation occurs when at = 0 or e~/y/c sin(fcc - at) + efy/c sin(fct + at) = 0 which, ...

Encyclopedia of Marine Science
The pattern of the tide is shown by plotting cotidal lines, or isolines of equal
phase of the tide wave around the amphidromic point. The cotidal lines can be
labeled with degrees of phase, or in time intervals in hours, of either solar time or
lunar ...
