Abstract
Scott and Greenberg modelled the paleotides in the Bay of Fundy and Gulf of Maine in 1983 (Can. J. Earth Sci.). Since that computation, more sophisticated models of the paleogeography (e.g Shaw et al., 2002. Quat. Sci. Rev) and the hydrodynamics (e.g Greenberg et al., 2005. Ocean Modelling) have been developed. In this presentation we use these updated tools to examine how the changing topography could have affected the tides. We speculate how in addition to different relative sea level changes, erosion might have had a strong influence. The factors influencing past tidal regimes are related to climate induced changes predicted for the next century.
