No, when I wrote &quot;mean tide&quot; I ment the tide, like halfway between low and<br/>
high tide. So that would be the mean water-depth. (gemiddelde zeestand of -<br/>

<br/>
OK, when mean low tide defines the &quot;coastline&quot; than many parts os the<br/>
Waddenzee should be called Waddenland. Because the seefloor is dry than.<br/>
