{
Retard of the tide },
or {
Age of the tide },
the interval between the transit of the moon at which a tide originates and the appearance of the tide itself .
It is found ,
in general ,
that any particular tide is not principally due to the moon '
s transit immediately proceeding ,
but to a transit which has occured some time before ,
and which is said to correspond to it .
The retard of the tide is thus distinguished from the lunitidal interval .

Retardation }. --
