Résumé

Tests have been conducted on five analytical processes and the results have been examined by statistical and power spectral techniques. Tide observations at Atlantic City (small range and large low-frequency noise), Swansea (large range and noise primarily in tidal frequencies), and San Francisco (small range and moderate low frequency noise) were used in the study. Residuals were obtained by subtracting the predicted hourly heights from observations and were evaluated for total energy (variance) and energy per frequency band. The latter calculation was found to be useful in comparing residual energy for particular portions of the frequency spectrum.
