How to calibrate astronomic tide forcing components?

Hi everyone,

I'm modelling water level for an estuary just for a month. I am using water level with astronomic forcing as the open boundary. I just have two things, the astronomic components (amplitude, phase) for my open boundary and the observed time series data for the month I'm interested in. I'm not sure how to calibrate the armonic components, since I don't have the corrections or other data. Is there a simple way to calibrate this data? Maybe with statistic as if it were two sets of time series data?


Thanks for all the help!
