The forces that are responsible are Horizontal Surface Currents. They can be unpredictable.
Tidal currents are strongest during the peak of high and low tides when the water level difference between two areas is greatest. This typically occurs around the times of high and low tide, when the gravitational forces of the moon and sun align.
No, tidal bulges are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, resulting in a slight distortion of the water's surface. Turbidity currents are fast-moving underwater sediment flows that are driven by gravity, occurring independently of tidal forces.
Tidal currents are not quite the same thing as tides. Tidal currents are horizontal movements of water caused by the tides.
Tidal dynamics refer to the gravitational forces between celestial bodies, such as the Earth, Moon, and Sun, that cause the oceans to bulge and recede. These forces create the daily rise and fall of sea levels, known as tides. Tidal dynamics also impact ocean currents and coastal ecosystems.
