King Tide photography initiative

Submit your photographs of King Tide events to be a part of DHEC’s South Carolina King Tide Initiative in 2018. New tide charts have just been released and available online and in print. DHEC’s MyCoast mobile app (iTunes, Google Play) also allows citizen scientists to document King Tide events. MyCoast links each personal qualitative experience to quantitative data including water levels, meteorological and atmospheric conditions. DHEC produces event summaries which are available through the webpage:
