Scientific paper

The general problem of predicting surface displacements due to ocean tide loading is reviewed. This includes the procedures in the IERS Conventions and suggestions for their next issue. In order to increase modeling accuracy we focus on the tides in the Gulf of Maine. This area is difficult to represent in global tide models. The VLBI station of Westford is located close enough to open up a model inversion opportunity. We have revived an ocean tide model to compute fully timedependent solutions; in one run we included forcing by air pressure using ECMWF pressure fields and the corresponding geostrophic wind. We show observed ocean loading parameters and discuss the remaining discrepancies with respect to the model results.
