The Sun's gravity. At neap tides - the moon is exactly opposite the Sun in relation to the Earth. This means it's 'pulling' against the gravity of the Sun.
The tides are caused by the moon's gravitational force.
The moon They dont
It causes especially strong tides (high high and low lows) called "spring" tides. Nothing to do with the season; they "spring" up. When the Moon and Sun are at right angles, we have "neap" tides (low highs and high lows).

The gravitational pull of the moon on Earth's oceans causes tides. When the moon is closest to Earth, during a full or new moon, tides are generally stronger (spring tides). When the moon is at a right angle to the sun, during the first and last quarter moon phases, tides are weaker (neap tides).
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.

The moon.
A natural satellite the size of the moon causes tides which impact the littoral margins of the ocean. Artificial satellites have no impact on the environment.
the moon's revolution around the earth has a major impact on the tides. the sun also has a less great impact on the tides, too. if we had no moon the tides would change greatly
