Permanent Committee on Tides and Mean Sea Level
(PCTMSL)
and
Tidal Interface Working Group
(TIWG)

The ICSM Permanent Committee on Tides and Mean Sea Level (PCTMSL) is working on the development of national standards and best practice guidelines for tidal related matters.  It is also working towards co-ordinating a national database of tidal records.  More information can be obtained from their homepage.

In November 2006, ICSM disbanded its Tidal Interface Working Group (TIWG).  This had developed a Compendium of Terms Associate with the Tidal Interface Zone.  It is envisaged that future activities relating to the tidal interface zone will primarily be underaken by the PCTMSL.
