The times of maximum tide generating potential, maximum semi-diurnal potential, and maximum diurnal potential for years 1-3000 C.E. are found by direct evaluation from a high-precision numerical ephemeris of the sun and moon. A slight negative trend in the equilibrium peaks of the total tide is caused by the current decrease in the earth's orbital eccentricity, which increases the earth-sun distance at perihelion. Peak diurnal tides are also slightly decreasing owing to the decrease in obliquity. Trends in semi-diurnal tidal peaks are more complicated, tending to decrease until 1247 C.E. and increase thereafter, a result primarily of the influence of the earth's precession on the solar tide.
