Abstract
Comprehensive field data was collected at Sharm Obhur. This data was processed and analyzed using different harmonic analysis techniques during the period of 2013. Since the measurement of the data was from a shallow-water creek, the data was full of noise and hence was filtered using the MATLAB code. Harmonic analysis techniques such as IOS and Admiralty methods were used for deriving major and minor tidal constituents. The variability in the shallow-water constituents and their selective amplifications were studied with derived constituents. The tidal regime classifications using form factor were carried out by using derived tidal constituents as applied and have been effectively tested in the field condition. The form factor study also shows the mixed semidiurnal nature of the tide in the creek and has been verified with field conditions. The contribution of sea-level variations of shallow-water constituents, Zo, was investigated and analyzed. The study has great practical potential for sea-level variation study and hydrographic-related applications in this region.
