Earth tides, or solid Earth tides, occur as a result of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun on the Earth's surface. These tidal effects cause the Earth's crust to deform slightly, leading to periodic elevation and subsidence in various locations. While they are most pronounced in oceanic regions, earth tides can also affect land areas, particularly in large geological structures or along fault lines. The effects are generally small, typically measuring just a few centimeters.
