Will mark ! plz ! the ocean’s tides are not only affected by the shape of the coastlines, or slope of the ocean floor, but also by the gravitational tug of the sun and the moon. write a 600 word report on the effect of the moon, and sun, on tidal reaction, and high tides and low tides. what orientation are the sun and moon in to create high tides? low tides? there are two special types of tides. what are they called and what positions are the sun and the moon in during these times?

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
