About this station

Kotzebue is one of NOAA's reference tide stations — its predictions are computed directly from harmonic analysis of water levels observed here, and other nearby stations are calculated from it.

Ranges here are small — often just a few feet — and wind-driven surge can swamp the astronomical prediction entirely. Many of these stations are ice-locked and quiet through the winter.
