constants (amplitudes and phase for sea surface height and current components;
and tidal current ellipse properties), and to make tidal predictions. </span></p>

TMD 2.5 includes two components: (1) a set of scripts for accessing tidal fields and making predictions; and (2) a graphical user interface (GUI) for quickly browsing tide fields, zooming in on regions of interest, and selecting points and time ranges for predictions of specific variables.

TMD works with:
<ul>
 <li> Arctic and Antarctic models available from ESR’s web page (https://www.esr.org/research/polar-tide-models/)
  <li>Global and regional models provided by OSU (https://www.tpxo.net) in binary format with all constituents in a single file. 
</ul>

<i><b>Alternatives to the MATLAB TMD toolbox:</b></i>

<b>FORTRAN:</b> A Fortran version of this package is made available through OSU: <a href="https://www.tpxo.net/otps">OSU Tidal Prediction software (OTPS)</a> 

<b>PYTHON:</b> <a href="https://github.com/tsutterley/pyTMD"> pyTMD</a>, created by T. C. Sutterley, is a Python-based tidal prediction software package, based on our MATLAB TMD package, that reads OTIS and GOT formatted tidal solutions for calculating ocean and load tides.</p>
