The shape of the coastline affect tides because of resonance. Resonance changes normal tide occilations. (see in the section of resonance, Hydrographic Volume II, Tide and Tidal Stream)

What factors cause a rising tide?

A rising tide, or high tide, is primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and, to a lesser extent, the sun on Earth’s oceans. As the moon orbits the Earth, its gravitational force creates bulges of water, leading to higher water levels in certain areas. Additionally, the Earth's rotation and the shape of coastlines can influence tide patterns. Changes in atmospheric pressure and wind can also temporarily affect tide levels.


How will high tide and a full moon affect storm surge with Hurricane Sandy?

When the storm surge of a hurricane comes in at high tide the affect is worse, as the height of the high tide is added to the storm surge to produce a storm tide. The high tide is highest during the full and new moon phases.


What is important to know when the high tide and low tide?

High tide and low tide can affect many things. If you are going to fish in the ocean, fish sometimes bite more during a certain tidal interval. Certain forms of marine creatures are more active during high tide or low tide.


What is tide direction?

Tide direction refers to the movement or flow of water caused by the changing tide. It can be incoming (flood tide) when water is rising towards the shore, or outgoing (ebb tide) when water is receding away from the shore. The direction of the tide is influenced by various factors such as the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, wind patterns, and the shape of the coastline.


How do tide pools form?

Tide pools are formed in rocky coastal areas when depressions or crevices in the rocks fill with seawater during high tide, trapping marine organisms inside when the tide recedes. Over time, wave action and erosion can also create and shape tide pools along the coast.

Why do you track tides?

Well if you were going some where the tide could affect your speed. The tide could affect the time it would take you to get there. The tide could affect the amount of fuel you would burn. The tide could affect the water depth. The tide could affect the clearance you have if you are going to go under a bridge. So check your tide chart. If you go with the tide you save time and fuel.
