The sea level data used in this study has been collected over a period of nine years from 1996 to 2004. Analyses have shown that the predominant type of tides at Zanzibar are semidiurnal with two high and two low water levels in each tidal day. Over the monthly cycle, two spring and two neap tides with different tidal ranges are observed. The tidal range may vary depending on the season of the year. 2014-08-13T19:52:01Z 2014-08-13T19:52:01Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6497 eng application/pdf Department of Oceanography Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
