Neap Tide is the tide that occurs when the Sun and Moon are in 'quadrature',
or 90 degrees apart in the sky. When things are arranged that way, we see
the Moon at either First Quarter or Third Quarter.

What phase of the moon do neap tides occur?
Neap tides are the ones that coincide with the Moon's First Quarter and Third Quarter.
The smallest high tides occur when the Moon phase is?
The higher "spring" tides occur at the new and full Moon, while the lower "neap" tides occur at the first and third quarter Moons.
What time of year do a neap tides occur?
the spring tides occur when the moon is in line with u and neap tides occur when the moon is on a 90 degree angle from u
What phase of the moon would be visible during the highest spring tide?
Spring Tides occur during two phases, full and new moon. This is because the moon earth and sun are aligned during both of these phases. It is opposite during neap tide, in which the moon and sun meet at a right angle on earth, which means the moon during neap tide is at the first or third (last) quarter phase. Hope this helped! :)
Where do neap tides occur?
Neap tides are especially weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one another (with respect to the Earth). Neap tides occur during quarter moons.

When does the neap tides occurs on the earth?
a neap tide occurs when the moon is either 1st or 3rd quarter phase.
How do neap tides occur?
They occur when the sun's pull is at right angles to the moon's
