Seasonal High Water Table & Tidal Influences?
Seasonal High Water Table & Tidal Influences?
(OP)
When determining the seasonal high water table for an oceanfront project does one need to adjust for the effects of daily high and low tides. It would seem that using redoxymorphic soil features would give one the elevation at high tide, but this elevation would drop as the tide went out.
Has anyone ever found references that speak to adjusting the elevation to adjust for tidal influences?
We are designing a beachfront structure and keeping the stormwater infiltration structure the required 2' above the seasonal high water table is a problem.

Meanwhile, have you tried Googling Tidal Hydraulics, US Army Corps of Engineers ? or similar terms ? My recollection is that the Corps has done a lot of work in this area.
good luck

This may not provide the answers to your questions, but may provide a decent bibiography and some leads.
