The Sun and the Moon influence the Earth's tides. When the Moon attracts the ocean nearest to it by gravitation pull, it creates a dome of water. As the dome rises so water is pulled away from areas out of reach of the Moon's main attraction, causing an ebb tide. As the influence of the Moon lessens as it orbits the Earth, so the dome moves on and the water flows back forming a flood tide.

How does the moon affect the earth's oceans?
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.

What are Tides on Earth are causes by?
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
What object causes Earth's tides?
the moon
What does the moon cause on earth that you can see?
The moon causes Tides
What forces causes the earth's highest tides in the ocean?
The earth's highest tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the earth's oceans. When the sun, moon, and earth are aligned during a full moon or new moon, their gravitational forces combine to create higher tides known as spring tides.
What does the moon have to do with earth tides?
The moon's gravitational pull causes ocean tides through a phenomenon called tidal force. As the moon orbits Earth, its gravitational force causes the oceans to bulge, resulting in high and low tides. This gravitational interaction between the moon and Earth is what leads to the phenomenon of earth tides.
What are tides in the science form?
The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is what causes tides.
What does the Moon's gravitational pull do to the tides on earth?
It causes the tides (together with the sun).
What is the same about the moon and the sun?
It causes tides on earth.
Does Earth also causes tides on the Moon?
Yes, Earth does cause tides on the Moon. The gravitational pull of Earth causes the Moon's surface to bulge and create tides, although they are not as pronounced as the tides on Earth due to the Moon's composition and lack of large bodies of water.
How does oceans affect the earth?
The moon's gravity causes tides on Earth.
