 |
| h = midpoint
of the tidal range (geoid sea level) (-0.3 m which estimates
the approximate effect of summer wave surge) |
| f(t) = tide height
at time t in meters above the reference datum, tide height predictions
were obtained from the OSU
Tidal Inversion Software |
| te = time of emergence |
| ts = time of submergence |
| g(t) = solar
elevation in degrees at time t from NASA
JPL Horizons Software,
soalr elevations greater than 50 ° were considered risky |
| s = constant solar radiation of 1
W/m2 |
| time threshold = 2+ hours of risky
conditions in order to be considered risky |
| *Note this analysis
is based on cloud-free and fog-free circumstances reflecting potential
(not necessarily real) exposure to high temperature conditions. |
