Abstract
Short period modulations of less than one month are studied for M(2) t idal waves in water level records taken from the Gran Canaria Island S helf off the island's east coast). From the relation ship among modula tions with low frequency oscillation observed in this zone (Bruno, 199 3), a mechanism based on non-linear interactions of meteorological low frequency oscillation and M(2) signal is proposed. This interaction e xplains a large amount of residual semidiurnal Variance in the water l evel data.
