Example of flow resources?
Running water, tides, wind, and solar radiation
Why do tides happen every 12 hours?
Tides ebb and flow twice a day.
Are there any oceans or seas that are tideless meaning no low or high tides or both?
In short: no. Tides are the result of the moon's gravitational pull on the earth. It pulls equally on everything, but the water can move and so it moves in the direction of the pull. Tides will be more noticeable in some places than others, though. In small bodies of water the tides are hardly noticeable. The highest tides in the world are at the Bay of Fundy, where the shape of the body of water (probably) contributes to the high tides. In other places the tidal range is almost zero. This is called an amphidromic point. Similarly, in these places, the shape of the body of water and the flow of the currents nearly zeros out the tidal effect.
Where do the water bulges occur on earth during the tides?
bulges of water in the ocean are called high tides.
What document provides information on times and tides?
coastal waters and tides compendium
What energy flow of water caused by the pull of the moon?
the moon brings in and out the tides

What time of day does water flow into a tidepool?
There are two times of day in which the tides refill and replenish tide pool habitats. These two times are the low tide periods that happen twice every 24 hours. The exact times of low tides vary each day based on Lunar cycles.
What does the moon do to earth when it orbits around it?
It has an influence on the earth's water, causing the ebb and flow of tides.
What is a 3 letter word for the motion of tides?
Ebb. (the tides ebb and flow)
How are tidal power plants similar to hydroelectric plants?
Both use the flow of water generate electricity. Hydroelectric uses the flow of water from a high point to a low point. (A damn). Tidal power uses the flow of ocean tides in and out.
Why do tides happen every 12 hours?
Tides ebb and flow twice a day.
The mixture of salt and freshwater in an estuary varies according to?
water densitysorry i meant to put ebb and flow of rivers and tides
How can ocean tides be used as an energy source?
Either use the up-down motion of the tides themselves, or let the tide water flow back and forth through a dam/turbine much like using falling water as a power source.
Why are coastal wetlands salty?
the ocean flow in with tides
