Well I'd say the moon. The moon's gravity is strong enough to pull water from Earth \, the Earth's gravity takes over and pulls it down.

The heavy waves caused by a hurricane are called rip tides?
While hurricanes can cause rip tides. The waves they cause are generally called "storm surge".
What causes the tides the rise and fall of sea water everyday?
The gravitational attraction from the Moon and Sun, causes the tides.
Are tides the same everywhere in the world?
high tides or spring tides is when the moon pulls the water up further into the beach creating less sand space while low tides or neap tides is when the moon pulls the sea out further creating more sand space
What are the major sea salts?
Major components of sea salt:chloridesodiummagnesiumsulfatecalciumpotassiumtotal inorganic carbon
What pull of the gravity on seawater causes?
The pull of gravity on sea water is from the moon. This causes tides. Like when you are at the beach low tides and high tides occur right? So, the moon pulls on the earth and the water follows the moon's gravitational pull. Hope this helped:)
What is the major cause of the different sea-tides everyday?
The gravitation of the Moon
What is the major cause of the different sea-tides every day?
The Moon.
What is the major cause of different sea-tides every day?
The Moon.
What is the cause of tides in sea?
the moons gravity
Does the Caribbean sea have tides?
All the seas have tides, because the moon's gravity affects all of them - but to a different extent.
How are low tides different from High tides?
In high tides areas, the water level is higher the average sea level. In areas between high tides, low tides from. In low tide areas, the water level is lower than average sea level.
The heavy waves caused by a hurricane are called rip tides?
While hurricanes can cause rip tides. The waves they cause are generally called "storm surge".
Where do tides occur?
in the sea
When the tides are especially weak the tides are called?
During spring tides, the sea comes in far up the beach, and goes out a long way.During neap tides, the sea doesn't come in as high up the beach, or goes out as far.
Why does the river tees not end in a delta?
The river tees is not a delta as the north sea (the sea it drains into) is tidal, meaning that the tides wash away the sediment that cause deltas.
How does sea level rise?
Sea levels rise with the tides.
What makes sea water move?
The main, and most regular, cause of movement in our oceans is due to the gravitational pull of the Moon. As the Moon orbits the Earth its gravitational field "pulls" the sea upwards and this causes high tides, with low tides following. Waves are also caused by the action of winds on the surface and, at greater depth, water movement can be due to tectonic movements, or earthquakes, under the sea. Another cause of ocean currents can be due to the change in density of the water, for example, where freshwater from rivers flows directly into the salty sea..
