An indirect tide refers to the tidal effects caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, which leads to the rise and fall of sea levels. Unlike direct tides, which are influenced primarily by the immediate gravitational pull of these celestial bodies, indirect tides involve the interplay of various factors, including the Earth's rotation and the geographic features of Coastlines. This can create variations in tidal patterns and amplitudes at different locations, leading to complex tidal behaviors.
