The reason this is important is for amphibious landings. Very high tides tend to flood beach defenses (which are usually designed for as far safer to use and more likely to reach the beach intact.

For a waxing gibbous from earth, the earth would be a waning crescent from the moon.
Discuss waxing of the moon phases?
The moon goes through two main phases, waxing and waning. Waxing is when the, from your position on Earth, the moon is systematically getting more visible. Waning is the opposite, when the moon is getting less visible. The moon goes from a new moon,(0% is visible), to a crescent moon (waxing), then to a first quarter (waxing), then a waxing Gibbous, and to a full moon (100% is visible). After a full moon, the moon begins waning to a waning gibbous, then a last quarter, a crescent, and finally a new moon. After this the cycle begins again. These are the visible spectrums of the moon in relation to a point on the Earth.
Is waxing gibbous the moon for tomorrow?
Since the date of the question doesn't appear on this screen, the answer would be "yes" on 7 or 8 days, and "no" on the other 21 or 22, out of every 29 days. The question was actually posted on January 7, 2011. In that month, the 4th is the New Moon, and the 12th is First Quarter. So, on the day the question was posted, the complete answer was: "No. It will remain a waxing crescent for another 5 days, and it will then spend the subsequent week in the waxing gibbous phase".
What phase occurs between the first quarter moon and the full moon?
