Field notes
The page explains its data choices rather than treating every number as a direct observation: West Point supplies the current estimate, while Beacon tide predictions are shifted to approximate Cold Spring. Water temperature is estimated from two more distant NOAA stations, and the page distinguishes those estimates and predictions from observed conditions. Its Constitution Marsh notes flag trestle clearance and the lag between marsh and river tide.
