Tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the Moon. The tides interact with the continental plates to form currents, which can also be created or altered by temperature differences in the sea.
Winds are caused by the motion of air masses when the atmosphere is heated by the Sun, or cooled by colder land and ice surfaces. Air masses are also steered by the spinning of the Earth.

Why is the tsunami debris heading to Hawaii?
The action of the winds and tides are carrying it there.
How does the moon affect the earth's oceans?
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
Do energy from the moon causes winds and ocean currents?
The energy from the moon primarily causes the ocean tides through gravitational forces, rather than winds and ocean currents. Winds are caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun, which creates differences in air pressure that lead to the movement of air. Ocean currents are mainly driven by a combination of wind, temperature, salinity, and the shape of the ocean basins.

What are and what causes neap tides?
The moon.
Does the Coriolis effect influence tides?
No, the Coriolis effect does not directly influence tides. Tides are primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the Earth's oceans. The Coriolis effect does affect ocean currents and winds, but not tides.
