    Abstract
    Variation of water level in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, India was monitored for a month at 13 locations using tide-poles during March–April 2003. Analysis of these data provided characteristics of how tidal constituents vary in the two estuaries. The amplitude of the semi-diurnal constituents increased by about 20% in the Mandovi from mouth to head and by about 30% in the Zuari; the increase in diurnal constituents was about 10% in the Mandovi and 15% in the Zuari. Phase lag of both semi-diurnal and diurnal tides increased from mouth to head in both estuaries, and the increase was more for the semi-diurnal than for the diurnal. The tidal range at the upstream end of the two channels at the stations dropped sharply because of the increase in elevation of the channels.
