2019-2020 PSSS Survey Schedule
Survey times are four-hour windows centered on the daytime high tides on the first Saturday of every month, October through April. Some surveys have been shifted to start 30 minutes after sunrise or to end 30 minutes before sunset to ensure optimum viewing conditions. Due to the significant difference in tide times from the most easterly survey site (Seward Park) to the most westerly site (Cape Flattery), the sites have been divided into three "tide zones". To determine which "zone" your survey site falls within, and therefore which set of 4-hour survey windows to utilize, find your site number listed below and refer to the table for the time of your 4-hr survey window. Download a copy of the 2019-2020 PSSS 4-hr survey windows document. Please be sure to complete your survey(s) within the 4-hour window.
