; Etymology: : Middle English neep, from Old English nēp being at the stage of neap tide
A neap tide is considered to be a tide that is neither very high nor very low. It occurs when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, causing less extreme tidal variations.
Spring tides and neap tides are different from high and low tides in terms of their impact on ocean water levels. Spring tides occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, causing higher high tides and lower low tides. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. This means that spring tides have a greater impact on ocean water levels compared to neap tides.
Neap tides occur when the gravitational forces of the moon and sun are perpendicular to each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. Spring tides, on the other hand, happen when the gravitational forces of the moon and sun are aligned, causing higher high tides and lower low tides.
Tides that are not very high and not very low are called neap tides.
Weather is derived from the latin term "Wethera" which means "the study of the skies".
I looked up into the sky and saw that the moon was in it's neap tide. The boat was being kept aground because of the neap tide.
Spring and neap tides come twice a month.
Rise and fall of sea levels is called tide. When the sun and moon are at right angles to the earth, the sun partially contracts the pull of the moon, producing lower high tides typical of a neap tide.
After watching the tides for several months she determined that the lowest tide was every two weeks or so, corresponding to the first and last quarter of the Moon, which corresponded to the neap tide.
no
a neap tide occurs when the moon is either 1st or 3rd quarter phase.

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.
It is a right angle
