This is a review of tides since we studied them already!

Watch the change in water level in the Bay of Fundy in Canada. This happens two times a day because there are two high tides and two low tides each day.

Notice that every six hours there is a high or low tide. If high tide occurs today at 6:00 am in Savannah, GA, what time will be low tide? When will the next high tide occur?

Because the sun also affects the tides, there are times with the sun and moon work against each other and times when their forces are added together.

High vs. Low Tide High Tide High tide a. Side facing the moon has water pulled by the moon (Direct tide) b. Side opposite the moon (Opposite tide) Low Tide Happens between the bulges

Position of the Earth, moon and sun affect tides 1. Spring tides - when the sun and moon line up in a straight line with the earth a. causes more pull than usual b. occurs at full and new moon c. causes very high high tides and very low low tides 2. Neap tides - when the moon, earth, and sun form a right angle, not much daily change a. forces are canceled out b. occurs at quarter phases of the moon c. little change in tides
