Tide gauges

Victorian tide gauge data is not currently available through the VCMP. However, we are looking to fill this data gap.

At present, we recommend accessing the Monthly Tide Gauge Statistics through the Bureau of Meteorology.

Wave +/- Hydro models

There are two models available:

• Port Phillip Bay SCHISM Model - For more information, see 'Hydrodynamic Climate of Port Phillip Bay'
