What phase of the moon produce the highest and lowest tides on earth?
When the Moon is at Full and at Dark (New), tides are strongest. These are called "spring" tides. When the Moon is at First and Last Quarter, the tides are weakest. These are called "neap" tides.The reason is that the Solar tides are either added to, or subtracted from, the Lunar tides.
What are especially weak tides called?
Especially weak tides are called neap tides. Neap tides occur when the gravitational pull of the sun and moon are perpendicular to each other, which results in minimal tidal range.
What is it called when high tides are higher and low tides are lower than normal?
High tides. The others are called low tides.
Is a neap tide stronger than any other tide?
No, a neap tide is not stronger than other tides; in fact, it is one of the weakest tidal patterns. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles relative to Earth, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides. This contrasts with spring tides, which are stronger and occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, creating higher high tides and lower low tides.
What is it called when you have extra high tides and extra low tides?
Spring tides, tidal surges.

What is the word for weakest tides?

What are tides that are not very high and not very low called?
Tides that are not very high and not very low are called neap tides.

What is it called when high tides are higher and low tides are lower than normal?

They are called high tides and low tides!
