Does every location on earth has two high tides per month?
Actually most places, which have a large enough body of water nearby, have 2 high tides per day. Check out related link about Lunar Tides.
The smallest high tides occur when the Moon phase is?
The higher "spring" tides occur at the new and full Moon, while the lower "neap" tides occur at the first and third quarter Moons.
How many many tides per day?
2
What causes the water to cycle?
The gravity of the moon pulls the oceans and makes low and high tides.
Where are high tides located in relation to the Moon?
There are "sub-lunar" and "antipodal" high tides. The sub-lunar tide occurs when a place is, roughly speaking, directly "below" the Moon in the sky. It's when the place is as close as possible to the Moon on any particular day. The antipodal tide is the one that occurs right on the other side of the Earth, as far away from the Moon as possible. That's the basics, but there are a lot of complications with the tides, of course.
What is the connection of the tides are high when there is a fullmoon or a new moon to the lunar cycle?
The moon controls the tides using gravity. So it only depends on how close the moon is the the earth. The luna cycle has no effect.
What do lunar eclipse imply?
High tides
Why does the moon afect the tides?
The moons gravitational pull is what make the tides high/low.
What sides of earth have high tides?
all have high tide if the moons by them
What is the lunar phase on the high and low tide days?
There are two high tides and two low tides every day.
How do low tides occurs?
Lunar tides and solar tides partially cancel each other out. (During high tides, they work together)
What causes daily high and low tides?
The moon and earths gravitational pull (gravity)
How does gravity effect the ocean?
The moons gravity pulls on the ocean, creating high and low tides. Depending on where the moon is located in contrast to where you are located, the moons gravity cause a spring tide, which is the largest hight range in high and low tides, and a neap tide, which is the least hight in high and low tides. I hope this helps. :)

Why two high and two low lunar tides per day?
Actually a little less: a full cycle is about 24:50 (hours:minutes). Every time the Moon is at its highest point, or at its lowest point (i.e. beneath our feet) there is high tide.
The smallest high tides occur when the Moon phase is?
The higher "spring" tides occur at the new and full Moon, while the lower "neap" tides occur at the first and third quarter Moons.
Why do tides occour?
the moons gravitational pull causes the tides. high tide and low tide. Also each tide occurs twice each day
