Auxiliary material for Paper 2007JC004418 ASIAEX 2001 South China Sea barotropic tidal current constituent properties. In the tables that follow are results of tidal harmonic analyses of full-depth velocity time series extracted from ASIAEX 2001 South China Sea ADCP sensors at positions S2 through S7. Full-depth time series generated by R. C. Beardsley, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Tidal analysis by R. C. Beardsley. T_TIDE software was used. Interpretations of these analyses are published in Beardsley, R. C., T. F. Duda, J. F. Lynch, S. R. Ramp, J. D. Irish, C.-S. Chiu, T. Y. Tang and Y. J. Yang, Barotropic tide in the northeast South China Sea, IEEE J. Oceanic Eng., 29, 1075-1086, 2004 where further information can be found. Output tables contain, for selected consituents, major axis amplitude (cm/s), minor axis amplitude (cm/s), inclination, and phase , each with confidence intervals. Analyses are of data from five moorings with parameters given in the following table: Table of mooring parameters Site Lat. N Long.
