Some information are shown Japanese Kanji, because that is a place name and unique to Japan.
Especially, name of the tide is unique. It is explained below. 'Shio(潮)' mean tide.

大潮 (Ōo-shio)
It's a day when a lot of tide difference high and low. It's around the full moon and the new moon.
中潮 (Naka-shio)
It's between 大潮 and 小潮.
小潮 (Ko-shio)
It's a day when few of tide difference high and low.
長潮 (Naga-shio)
It's a day after 小潮.
若潮 (Waka-shio)
It's a day that tide starts to move again. It come after 長潮.

The places name is difficult to chang to Roman letters. So In the app it shown in Japanese Kanji as it was.
