Tides are caused by the moon, so scientists can predict tides in advance from the moon's position relative to earth
How does the phases of the moon affect the tides at sea?
the phases of the moon don't affect tides. Tides are caused by the moon's gravity, the moon is always at the same distance from Earth. Sun also causes the tides. so if the sun and the moon are directed in the same place at Earth extra high tides occur.
Why are tides so easy to predict?
Because the moon takes almost exactly the same time to orbit once around the earth. Since the moon exerts the greatest pull on the tides, it's a simple calculation to predict the time of the high and low tides.
Does moon phases cause tides?
