... when the ebb transitions to the flood tide or vice versa, the water level only varies up and down a small scale within the period of time, but not appreciably. This is called the stand of tide. The duration of the tidal stand is generally related to the tidal range. When the tidal range is small, the tidal stand lasts longer and vice versa. 4, record 1, English, - stand%20of%20tide
