Why are tides greater at the times of the full and new moons and at the times of lunar and solar eclipses?
Full Moons and New Moons are "eclipse season", since eclipses happen only at those times. They are the times when the sun earth and moon are closest to being in a straight line. So the tidal effects of the moon and the sun are working together. The sun's tidal effects on the earth are not very strong compared to the moon's, but they do have the effect of adding to the lunar tides as these times.
