. Annual data summary for 1983 CERC Field Research Facility. Oceanographic research; Water waves. the 10-cm mean variation and the tendency for the daily lows to be somewhat higher than for prior years. Combined years 88. Based on the distribution of the tide heights for I98O through 1983 (Figure 32), the tide can be expected to exceed 110 cm for percent of the time (110 hr). Likewise, the height can be expected to be less than -80 cm for percent of the time (111 hr).. PROBABILITY, PERCENT EQUAL OR GREATER Figure 32. Dist

Distribution of hourly tide heights and daily high/low water levels for I98O through I983 Water Characteristics 89. The results of daily measurements of surface water temperature, visibility, and density are presented in this section. The summaries rep- resent single observations made near 0700 EST and therefore may not reflect daily average conditions since such characteristics can change rapidly within a 24-hr period. A discussion of 1983 data is followed by a comparison with previous years. Water temperature 90. Present year. Daily sea-surface water temperatures at the seaward 59.
