Abstract :
An assessment of a statistical model currently used for the prediction of high tides in the Venetian lagoon is presented. The model is analyzed from several points of view and is compared with state-space descriptions of smaller order which seem to provide slightly better results. Moreover the relevance of additional external inputs to the model, that is additional meteorological agents, is discussed.
