The water from the waves in tidal waves can affect the shores and beaches of countries that get hit by the strong force. Destroying and damaging building and homes near the ocean.
The moon and the earth both have magnetic fields and these are what makes the two attract. When the moon a full moon, more of the moon is seen and therefore more of the force is affected the tides. So, the fuller the moon, the higher the tides. I also believe that the sodium chloride present in the sea waters has some affect on the tides.
It usually used to describe the force of gravity (of the moon) pulling on the oceans and water on Earth thus creating high and low tides. The sun is massive and close enough to Earth to have a significant affect on tides also.
The gravitational pull of the moon and the sun creates tides on the earth. While tides are most commonly associated with oceans and large bodies of water, gravity creates tides in the atmosphere and even the lithosphere. The atmospheric tidal bulge extends far into space but the tidal bulge of the lithosphere is limited to approximately 12 inches twice a day.
The attraction from the moon, and less from the sun, causes the waters of the world to form the tides of flood and ebb.
The moon affects the tides more than the sun.
Tsunamis are not called Tidal waves anymore, as tsunamis are not affected by the tides. Tides do not affect how strong or tall the tsunamis are and that is why tsunamis are not commonly called tidal waves anymore because the word 'tidal' is misleading.

Oceanographers are scientists who study the tides. They record details such as the measurement of the heights, times and the extent of the rising and falling of tidal waters. This information is vital for the navigation of ships that rely on accurate data about the speed and direction of tidal currents.
Tidal energy can work in only certain locations. A tidal generating station must be in an area where the difference between high and low tides is very large. This means the tidal waters will have a great deal of energy.
Spring tides have a greater tidal range than neap tides.
Tidal movements result mainly from the pull of the moons gravity on the ocean.
Yes, ponds experience a tidal affect. It is so small that it is not really noticable, and very difficult to measure. It is believed that the tidal affect also is experienced by animals and plants.
Tidal patterns are greatly influenced by the size, shape, depth, and location of the ocean basin in which the tides occur.
Tidal energy can work in only certain locations. A tidal generating station must be in an area where the difference between high and low tides is very large. This means the tidal waters will have a great deal of energy.
A spring tide has the greatest tidal range. A neap tide has a smaller tidal range.
