Can tidal energy can classified as a biotic resource?

No. Biotic means living (or recently living). Tidal energy can be classified as a renewable resource, however, because we can use it to generate power, and it renews itself at the next tide to generate more power.

Is tidal power sustainable?

Yes. Tidal energy is renewable The energy of the tides will not go away if we use their power to generate electricity. It is renewable in the sense that we cannot take away the source of the energy by using them (unlike fossil fuels, of which there is a limited supply. No matter what use we may make of the tides, we do not use them up. The tides will continue to ebb and flow, driven by gravitational forces.


When boating on coastal waters it is important to be aware of the tide if high tide is at noon when can you expect the next low tide?

The tidal period (length of time between successive high or low tides) is about 12 hours and 25.2 minutes, exactly half a tidal lunar day. Thus the period between the high tide and the low tide is 6 hours and 12.6 minutes. This means that if it was high tide at noon, the low tide will be at 12.6 minutes past 6 in the evening of the same day.
