About the tides at Bear Island, chs-04648
Bear Island, chs-04648 has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. On a typical day the water moves about 1.37 m between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.92 m, comes today, and the smallest, 1.14 m, on October 7.
Predictions for Bear Island, chs-04648 come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1987. The nearest other station is Kuujjuarapik, 41 km away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
