Hello Jeff,
I have asked our senior scientist which one to use to describe the
predicted water level and he suggested that we use:
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_equilibrium_ocean_tide
Thank you all very much,
Mohamed

Mohamed, do any of the names suggested below meet your needs?

Some tide effects on sea surface heights elevations are captured by:
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_earth_tide
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_equilibrium_ocean_tide
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_geocentric_ocean_tide
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_non_equilibrium_ocean_tide
sea_surface_height_amplitude_due_to_pole_tide
Perhaps you will find what you need here, otherwise they probably
need to be extended?..

Objet : [CF-metadata] CF name for predicted water level?
Hello-
One of our data providers, CO-OPS (NOAA's Center for Operational
Oceanographic Products and Services)
provides water level measurements and predictions. For the real-time
measurements, we use the CF
Standard Name water_surface_height_above_reference_datum. What name
should be used (or added) for
the predicted levels? I believe the predictions are based on tides
and other factors, rather than
being model-generated forecasts. I have CCed two of the CO-OPS people
on this message.
