Does high tides occur when the moon is at perigee?
Yes
Tides of a great range?
The largest tides occur the alignment of the Sun, Earth and Moon system coincide at their perigee and perihelion. Thus all the gravitational masses pull in one direction and cause very high tides. Rarely, Mars may add to the picture.These tides will be the highest recorded and the lowest recorded, hence the range is greatest. Often called King Tides.
When high tides are higher than normal what tides do they make neap or spring tides?
it makes spring tides. the way i remenber that is springs go high and and spring tides are higher than neap tides.
How Compare and contrast perigee tides and spring tides?
A spring tide occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned with each other. In this condition, the gravity from the Sun and Moon accentuate each other and you have a higher than normal tide. This occurs about every 14 days, and is not called spring tide because of the season of spring; it is called spring tide because the tides spring up, so to speak. A neap tide, on the other hand, is when the Sun, Earth, and Moon form a 90 degree angle. In this condition, the gravity from the Sun and Moon partially cancel each other and you have a lower than normal tide. For additional information, please see the Related Link below.
Do mostly spring tides occur in the spring?
Spring tides occur every two months; every full moon and new moon. The spring has nothing to do with the spring tides, despite it's name.

What is proxigean spring tides?
"Perigee" means "nearest the Earth." Since the Moon is responsible for most of the tide (about 2/3rds; the Sun, bigger but much farther away, accounts for 1/3rd). Tides are strongest when the Moon is closest. "Spring" tides don't have anything to do with the season of Spring; they occur when the Sun and Moon join forces, at Full and New Moon. They are the most extreme tides of the month: the highest highs and the lowest lows. When spring tides occur during a close Moon, these are the strongest of all.

What is a spring and neat tide?
Spring Tides Are Extreme Tides And Neap Tides Are Weaker Tides.
Compare neap and spring tides Give two comparisons in your answer?
Spring and Neap tides are alike because they are both affected by the gravitational pull of the moon and because they are both caused by the alignment of the earth, moon, and the sun.

Tide are especially high or low when the moon is full or new?
in England we call them spring tides and they occur whenever there is a full moon.
Do spring tides occur mostly in the spring?
Spring tides occur every two months; every full moon and new moon. The spring has nothing to do with the spring tides, despite it's name.
