Resumo:We present in this paper a synthesis of the first stages of modeling the main constituents of the ocean tides in the Mediterranean sea. We have initiated our work with the construction of the M2 harmonic chart for the whole sea. At the present stage we have obtained the results corresponding to its western basin, from the Gibraltar Strait till the islands of Corsica and Sardinia. GEOMED is a project for the determination of the geoid and of the Sea Surface Topography in the Mediterranean Sea. This article is included in the second volume of the MARE NOSTRUM Series, that collect the works done by many groups involved in the GEOMED organization, as informed in the GEOMED Meeting held in Madrid at october 1992.
