First quarter and third quarter phases of the moon produce the least variation in the tides.
What phase of the moon when have a very high tides occur?
spring tides
What is the effect of THE MOON'S GRAVITY PULLS ON EARTH?
The most noticeable effect is the tides.
What phase of the moon brings the highest tides?
full
What phase of the moon the highest and lowest tides on earth?
New and full moons produce the highest and lowest tides. These are called spring tides
