Tidal streams are caused by the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun acting on the Earth's oceans. The alignment and relative positions of these celestial bodies create variations in the water levels, resulting in the movement of tides. Geographical features of Coastlines and ocean floor topography also influence the speed and direction of tidal streams in different regions.
What else can I help you with?
What causes tidal changes?
the tides are not affected by seasonal changes
How does tidal movement produce energy?
Tidal movement produces energy when tidal generators are placed in areas where the movement of the tide is dramatic. This movement causes the turbines in the generators to turn and produces motor movement.
What causes the geological activity seen on some of the inner moons of Jupiter?
tidal friction
Can you use tidal power in everyday life?
Tidal power produces electricity, the same electricity that you use in everyday life. Some countries are planning systems that will use the tides as a source of renewable energy. That is an extremely good idea.
What causes tides and strong tidal currents?
Tides are primarily caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans. The alignment of the Earth, moon, and sun determines the intensity of tides. Strong tidal currents are influenced by the topography of the seabed, coastline shape, and narrow passages that amplify the tidal flow.
What causes streams to form?
weathering
What is a tidewater bridge?
A bridge that crosses an area of low-lying land that is flooded and drained by tidal streams.
What twice daily event wuold cause water levels around Jamestown to raise and cause wells and fresh water streams to become brackish?
The twice-daily event that causes water levels around Jamestown to rise and makes wells and fresh water streams become brackish is the tide. The tidal cycle brings in seawater, increasing the salinity of the water in wells and freshwater streams located in the vicinity of Jamestown.
what are landforms?
Landforms are topics to tundras,deserts to rain forests,fresh water mountains streams to saltwater tidal marshes.
What causes water loss in streams?
drink out of the toilet.......
What are the different types of streams?
The main types of streams are coldwater streams, which have cooler temperatures and support fish like trout; warmwater streams, which have higher temperatures and support fish like bass and sunfish; and transitional streams, which are influenced by tidal or anthropogenic effects. Each type of stream has unique characteristics and supports different aquatic life.

What causes one side of your moon to always face the Earth?
tidal lock
What is a tidal wave caused by a earthquake?
This is known as a tsunami.
What causes the formation of tidal bulges?
Tidal bulges are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, creating a slight distortion in the shape of the water.
How do jet streams create local storms?
Jet Streams are fast blowing winds above the troposphere. The blow at speeds of upto 120kmph. When two jet streams collide it causes storms.
