HIGH TIDES,LOW TIDES,SPRING TIDES,NEAP TIDES

HIGH TIDES

• High tides occur when the gravitational forces pull generates something that is called the tidal force. Also when the waves highest part of the ocean reaches the specific location
• At the beach the high tides will make the water level change
• The high tide on the side of the earth that is facing the moon is typically stronger then the other side that is farthest from the moon

LOW TIDES

• Low tides are formed by the moons gravitational force pulling on the ocean.
• Low tides at the beach look like there is more sand then water
• From space it looks like the ocean is boldging out on both sides were the side of earth is closest to the moon and on the side of earth farthest from the moon. On one side of the bulge it is smaller wich is caused by the low tide

SPRING TIDES

• Spring tides are formed when the earth,moon,and sun are all lined up with each other which creates a gravitational attraction that combines to make super tides
• Spring tides at the beach are way bigger than the high tides. The ocean is much higher than normal and the vision of the sand is decreased
• From space the earth,sun,and moon are all in a line. This specific spring tide will happen at a new moon and a full moon.

NEAP TIDES

• Neap tides are especially weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the moon and sun are at a 90 degree angle wich is (first quarter)
• At the beach high tides aren't so high and low tides arent so low
• In space when the moon goes to first quarter the gravitys pull in diffrent directions. Neap tides are occuring every 14 days at first and last quarter of the moon.
