What else can I help you with?
What are the largest tidal movements called?
The largest tidal movements are called spring tides. Spring tides occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, resulting in higher high tides and lower low tides.
Why is the moon responsible for predicting tidal movements in the earths oceans?
The moon doesn't predict anything, but scientists do and the gravitational pull of the moon , sun, and the earth determines tidal movements.
What is the hurricaines source of energy?
Tidal energy and lunar movements.
What currents are the result of the movements of the sun and moon?
Tidal Currents
What type of coast would a tidal bore most likely occur?
The type of coast that a tidal bore would most likely occur is a coast with narrow bays and inlets. Tidal bores also occur on a coast that has river channels.
Some organisms will base what schedules on tidal movements?
Feeding and mating could be tied to tidal cycles for several organisms that occupy tidal basins or shorelines.
What kind of water movements are caused by the Moon's gravity?
tidal currents
What are tide currents?
Tidal currents are not quite the same thing as tides. Tidal currents are horizontal movements of water caused by the tides.
How is tidal energy made?
Tidal energy is generated by capturing the kinetic energy of moving water in oceans and seas. This is typically done using underwater turbines that are turned by the ebb and flow of tidal currents, converting this motion into electricity. Tidal energy is a renewable and clean energy source that can be harnessed in coastal areas with strong tidal movements.
On what type of coast would a tidal bore most likely occur?
A tidal bore is most likely to occur on a coastal area with a funnel-shaped bay or estuary, such as in rivers or estuaries that have a narrow inlet opening onto a broad bay. The narrowing of the waterway causes the incoming tide to create a wave that can travel upstream, forming a tidal bore.
What is the area of shore where the tides occur?
It is known as the tidal zone.
Ocean water rises and falls in a regular daily pattern called a?
Tidal movements
