I am calibrating a TELEMAC2D model using TPXO tidal database. I am using Keywords:

OPTION FOR TIDAL BOUNDARY CONDITIONS : 1 (Real tide)
TIDAL DATA BASE : 2 (TPXO Database)

To compare water-level from modelled results, I am using Datum of Predictions is Lowest Astronomical Tide, and with Times are in local standard time (UTC +10:00).

My question are:

1. What time-series does a TELEMAC model generate (in this case)? real tide at local time? or real tide at UTC+0?

2. Do I need to convert time from my predicted data which apply local time (UTC+10) to GMT (+0)? For instance: predicted tide at 23:50 is 1.24m (UTC+10), converting to 13:50 (UTC+0) = 1.24m?

Best Regards

Huy
