The Earth is not a perfect sphere. The rotation of the planet has caused the Earth to 'bulge' to a certain extent. The distance around the Equator is further than any other measurement of the circumference.
The bulge was when the Germans surged ahead 60 feet in the Allied defenses in the Ardennes' Forest.
A lunar bulge is a deformation of Earth's oceans caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon. As the Moon orbits Earth, its gravity creates a bulge on the side of Earth that is closest to it, as well as a smaller bulge on the opposite side due to the centrifugal force generated by the Earth-Moon system's rotation. This phenomenon contributes to the rise and fall of ocean tides, with the bulges corresponding to high tide areas.
It took place in WW II
A tidal bulge is primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans. As the moon orbits Earth, its gravitational force pulls water toward it, creating a bulge on the side of Earth facing the moon. Simultaneously, a second bulge occurs on the opposite side due to the centrifugal force resulting from the Earth-moon system's rotation. This interplay between gravitational attraction and centrifugal force results in the high and low tides experienced in different coastal areas.

No. The areas of tidal bulge cause high tides as places on earth pass though them, not lowtides.However, where one has a bulge there must be a trough either side of it and this is where the low tides occur.

Earth's equatorial bulge is primarily caused by its rotation. As the Earth spins on its axis, the centrifugal force generated by this rotation causes the equatorial region to bulge outwards. This results in the Earth being slightly flattened at the poles and oblate spheroid in shape.
An aqueous bulge is a bulge that occurs in water. There is one on each side of the earth, one facing the moon and the other facing away from the moon, causing tides to occur.
The bulges in the Earth's oceans, known as tidal bulges, occur on the side of the Earth facing the Moon and the side opposite the Moon. The gravitational pull of the Moon causes water to be drawn toward it, creating a bulge on the near side. Simultaneously, a second bulge forms on the far side due to the inertia of the water, as the Earth is pulled slightly toward the Moon. This results in high tides in both locations, while areas perpendicular to these bulges experience low tides.
The equatorial bulge is caused by the Earth's rotation. As the Earth spins on its axis, the centrifugal force generated by this rotation causes the planet to bulge at the equator. This bulge results in the Earth being slightly wider at the equator than it is at the poles.
At the equator. The spin of the earth is fastest there.
