The moons mass in general causes the tides. Mass has gravity, and the moon is massive enough for its gravity to pull noticeably on the oceans.
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.

The tides are caused by the moon's gravitational force.

The moon causes tides, but tides are not part of the climate. The moon is not particularly involved in the Earth's climate. Moonlight does not have enough energy content to make the Earth warmer.

The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is what causes tides.
It causes the tides (together with the sun).
The gravitational pull of the moon on Earth's oceans causes tides. When the moon is closest to Earth, during a full or new moon, tides are generally stronger (spring tides). When the moon is at a right angle to the sun, during the first and last quarter moon phases, tides are weaker (neap tides).
It is not the gravitional effect ON the moon, but the gravitional effect OF the moon. The moon pulls on the earth, just as the earth pulls on the moon. The pull of the moon causes water to be drawn towards the moon, and forms a "bump" in the level of water. As the earth rotates below the water, the raised part of the water has the effect of making the water get deeper, then shallower. Those are the tides.
