They are controlled by the sun and the moon. Sometimes Earth gets closer to sun because of its elliptic track. When the sun is closer, it's gravity causes a tide on the side closest to the sun and on the opposite side.
so you dont get stuck out at sea when the tide comes in you dummy
Tide refers to the rising and falling of sea levels caused by gravitational forces of the moon and sun. Tidal range, on the other hand, is the difference in height between consecutive high and low tides at a specific location.
A tide is the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the gravitational forces of the moon and sun acting on the Earth's oceans. Tides typically occur twice a day and are influenced by factors such as the moon's phase and the geography of the coastline.
'Flood tide' is the expression used for the incoming, or rising tide. The opposite is 'Ebb tide' when it goes back out again. You would have to refer to the tide tables, for the day, in your area of interest. Flood tide is the time between low tide and the next high tide.
The sea rise and falls twice a day because of the gravitational force of the moon. in 24 hours the earth rotates 360 degrees. assuming the moon is stationary and I am at one point on the earth at 0.00 hours the sea is half way between high and low tide , the moon having half gravitational effect mid tide at 3.0 hours the moon is in line with me on the earth having high tide. at 6.00 hours the moon is half way round having half effect, mid tide at 9.00 hours the moon is at right angles having full effect, low tide at 12.00 hours the moon is half way round having half effect, mid tide at 15.00 hours the moon is in line having full effect, high tide at 18.00 hours the moon is halfway round having half effect, mid tide at 21..00 hours the moon is at right angles having low tide full effect at 24.00 hours the moon is halfway round having half effect and repeat the next day later, Two high and two low tides per day
When the sea is retreating from the land, it is an ebb tide. When the sea is coming in, it is a flood tide.
the moon controls it
the ebb tide
the ebb tide
the ebb tide
the ebb tide
no
I think that everyday the tide changes from being high and being no tide.
It is a flood tide when the sea is coming in, and an ebb tide when the sea is going out.
That would be TIDE.
the moon
at low tide rockpools are pools at high tide they are part of the sea...
