This suggests Panama experiences a persistent seasonal sea level change. Looking at our dataset (Figure 4.51 above), it looks like there are annual highs and lows where tides are high for about 8 months (May-December) every year, and are relatively low for 4 months (January-April).In the dataset example used here, remember, we are looking at monthly averages, so the data we downloaded is the 30-day average for each month therefore all tides in a given month are averaged to a single value.
In fact you may see trends and patterns that we discussed throughout the module. You will begin to see patterns or trends in the data.
