Tides are measured to understand and predict the cyclical rise and fall of sea levels caused by gravitational interactions between the Earth, moon, and sun. Monitoring tides is crucial for navigation, coastal management, and environmental studies, as it impacts marine ecosystems and human activities. Additionally, accurate tide measurements help in flood forecasting and infrastructure planning in coastal areas.
