The earthtide package simplifies the generation of earth tides and wave group harmonics for analysis in R.
earthtide is a port of the ‘Fortran ETERNA 3.4’ (Wenzel, 1996) predict and part of the analyze codes with the Kudryavtsev 2004 update. The original ‘Fortran’ code was rewritten in R, and C++ using the great Rcpp, RcppEigen, and RcppThread. The package is useful for generating synthetic earth tides using highly accurate tidal catalogs for prediction and regression. Attempts were made to ensure that results were consistent with the ‘ETERNA 3.4’, however, there is always the possibility that a bug was introduced in during the conversion and update.

You can install the CRAN version with the following command:
install.packages('earthtide')The development version can be installed from github using the following commands:
library(remotes)
remotes::install_github('jkennel/earthtide')I will try to keep the IERS orientation datasets up-to-date in the development version (weekly update).
The following code computes the synthetic gravity, LOD tide, and pole
tide and returns a data.frame of results. To see the list
of possible arguments and methods of the Earthtide class use
?Earthtide.
library(earthtide)
# One month of hourly data
tide <- Earthtide$
new(utc = as.POSIXct("2015-01-01", tz = "UTC") + 0:(24*31) * 3600,
latitude = 52.3868,
longitude = 9.7144,
wave_groups = data.frame(start = 0.0, end = 6.0))$
predict(method = "gravity")$ # compute gravity
lod_tide()$ # LOD tide column
pole_tide()$ # pole tide column
tide() # return result
To generate curves for regression applications we can use the analyze method. For each wave group, normalized sin and cosine curves are generated.
wave_groups <- na.omit(eterna_wavegroups[eterna_wavegroups$time == '1 month',
c('start', 'end')])
tide_groups <- Earthtide$
new(utc = as.POSIXct("2015-01-01", tz = "UTC") + 0:(24*31) * 3600,
latitude = 52.3868,
longitude = 9.7144,
wave_groups = wave_groups)$
analyze(method = 'gravity')$
tide()

## NULLThere are two main methods for using the earthtide package. The codes were developed using R6 classes, but wrappers have been written if a more typical interface is desired. Both should give the same results, but R6 stores more information about the calculations.
For example (the standard method):
tms <- as.POSIXct("2015-01-01", tz = "UTC") + 0:(24*31) * 3600
grav_std <- calc_earthtide(utc = tms,
do_predict = TRUE,
method = 'gravity',
latitude = 52.3868,
longitude = 9.7144)and the R6 method:
grav_r6 <- Earthtide$
new(utc = tms,
latitude = 52.3868,
longitude = 9.7144)$
predict(method = 'gravity')$
tide()
all.equal(grav_std, grav_r6)## [1] TRUEThese binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
