If by "high water mark" you're referring to flooding, there really is no way to calculate it. howver, if the question is how to determine of a property is subject to flooding, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development has maps which will show lands which are located in a 50-year or 100-year floodplain.
mean high water mark: an imaginary line on a shore subject to tides or other increases in water level, indicating the average level reached by the water during all relatively recent high water periods You would need to mark the line (with a long stake or rod that won't get washed out?) where the high water reaches several times over a period of several days or weeks. Then you would need to place a mark at an equal distance between the highest and lowest points you had marked with the (stakes or rods?). That point would be the "mean high water mark".

The laws in Florida are being modified where the state has added footage to the beaches for erosion control projects. The state does not consider that added land, which changed the old mean high water mark, as belonging to the abutter and suits have been filed. The added beachfront has been dedicated to the public.

Calculate it, Idiot.
During a spring tide, the high water mark would be high up on the beach on the flood, and very far out on an ebb tide. During a neap tide, the high water mark is not so high or so low as during a spring tide.
A hurdle rate would be a minimum return required before a management incentive fee would kick in. An minimum requirement example might be LIBOR + or a Risk Free Rate, etc. A high water mark is the highest peak in value an investment fund has reached. High water marks are setup to ensure that high fees aren't paid for poor performance. In other words, if the manager loses a bunch of money, you don't pay a performance incentive fee until the fund is back up to the high water mark.
