it is called an irrelevant spit. it is called this because it is in between bulges and is basicly what you call irrelevant

What is the relationship between the relief of an area and the contour interval on a map of the area?
The Relationship between the relief of an area and the contour interval on a map of the area is A contour line
What kind of tide is it when the water is lower than normal high tide?
The ocean as a whole is pulled in the direction of the moon, by the moon's gravitational field (the sun also has a tidal effect, although smaller). So water pulled away from an area of low tide is pulled toward an area of high tide.
How would the tides be different if the earth did not rotate?
Without the earth's rotation, the only natural force controlling oceanic activity would be gravity. The sun and the moon would provide only a minor contribution to ocean behavior because of their distance to the earth. Ocean water would instantly attract towards the part of the earth where the center of the strongest gravity pull is taking place. Tides would centralize to this area and disturbed only by catastrophic weather phenomenon that may be provoked by climatic changes do to the lack of rotation.
Why are river tides have more variance than ocean tide?
tides periodically rise and fall on the water level of the ocean and waves move in an up-and-down motion along the surface of a body of water
What formation is responsible for rock gypsum?
Gypsum is formed underwater, usually between layers of shale and limestone. When the water evaporates and the area dries, the gypsum becomes solid "rock" gypsum.
The area between bulges of water in the ocean?
The area between bulges of water in the ocean is called a trough. There are generally a couple of these in between: one that is usually high and the other one that is usually low.
The area between the bulges of water is?
The area between bulges of water is a depression or a low-tide area. High tidal bulges have these low-tide areas which would correspond to troughs.
What tide forms when water is drawn away from the area between high tides?
Tidal pools are formed when water is drawn away from an area between high tides.
Forms when water is drawn away from the area between high tides?
Tidal pools are formed when water is drawn away from an area between high tides.
The area between two tidal bulges is?
a spit
What do you call the area between tides?
It is called the tidal plain.
How many tides will an area on earth experience each day?
An area will experience 2 High tides and 2 low tides
What is the rise and the fall of water along the ocean shore?
an area where rivers rise and fall with ocean tides
What is and area where rivers rise and fall with ocean tides?
an area where rivers rise and fall with ocean tides
What is tides friction?
The friction between water and the earth where the free flow of water is restricted by the configuration of the land.The area around the Irish sea for instance. Such areas are contributing factors of the slowing of the earths rotation and thus lengthening the day
What zone is the point along the shoreline between the lowest and the highest high tide line and the lowest low tide line?
The slack water area is the space that lies between high and low tides
What is the Contrast between a spring tides and neap tides?
Perigee tides involve the Moon's orbit around the Earth. It does not go in a perfect circle but rather in an ellipse/oval shaped revolution. Because of that there are some points in the Moon's orbit at which the Moon is closer to the Earth. "Perigee" is the point of closest approach. With that closeness it causes a greater gravitational attraction between Earth and the Moon, pulling more water towards the Moon, causing what we know as high and low tides. "Spring tides" can occur during a perigee tide but not necessarily. A spring tide is a tide that occurs when the Sun, Earth and the Moon are nearly in a straight line, at a NEW MOON, or at a Full Moon. The highest tides happen then.
