The solar and lunar cycles significantly influence ocean life through their effects on tides and light availability. The gravitational pull of the moon creates tidal patterns that affect the movement and behavior of marine organisms, such as spawning and feeding. Additionally, solar cycles impact water temperature and light exposure, which are crucial for photosynthesis in phytoplankton, the foundation of the marine food web. These cycles help regulate breeding, migration, and feeding patterns among various marine species.

The two main types of Earth tides are lunar tides and solar tides. Lunar tides are caused primarily by the gravitational pull of the Moon, leading to two high tides and two low tides in most coastal areas each day. Solar tides, although weaker, result from the Sun's gravitational influence and also contribute to the tidal cycle, particularly during spring and neap tides. Together, these forces create the regular ebb and flow of ocean water.
We don't see solar and lunar eclipses every lunar cycle because the orbits of the Earth, Moon, and Sun are not perfectly aligned. Solar eclipses occur when the Moon passes in front of the Sun, blocking its light from reaching Earth, and this alignment is not always present. Similarly, lunar eclipses occur when the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon, and this alignment also does not happen every month due to the tilt of the Moon's orbit.
It's all up to you. [See related question] A solar year is based on the Earths orbit around the Sun, whereas a lunar year is based on the cycle of the Moon. Mainly used now in Islamic calender's.
On earth there are 2 eclipses, Lunar and Solar eclipses

Christians started the years again when Jesus was born but Muslims didn't
It is lunisolar. It is based on the solar year, with adjustments to keep the months in line with the lunar cycle.
iiWHAT IT MEANS!! A lunar week is when the whole week has every single phase of the moon.If there is lunar phases every single day of the year then there is a lunar year.If there is only for a month then it is called a lunar month.A lunar cycle are called to the phases of the moon.

The Chinese calendar aligns perfectly with the cycle of the moon. It is a lunisolar calendar that incorporates both lunar and solar movements to track time.

They are both luni-solar calendars, based on the lunar months with leap-adjustments to stay in step with the solar year.

There are several new years days depending on which calendar is used. It denoted the start of a new solar cycle. It can also refer to a new lunar cycle in calendars.
