Ocean Water Levels
• The water level of the ocean rises and falls throughout the day.
• Early in the day, ocean water rises and covers part of the beach.
• Later in the day, the ocean level falls. • The beach is exposed. • These regular changes in ocean water levels are
called tides. • A low water level is called low tide. • A high water level is called high tide.

• Once a month we have a lower than normal Low tide (above) and a higher than normal high tide (below) in the same location.

Causes of Tides
• The Earth's gravitational pull on the Moon keeps the Moon in orbit around us.
• The Moon also pulls back on Earth and causes the tides.

Causes of Tides
• The Sun's gravitational pull also affects Earth's tides, but because it is so far away from us, not as strongly.

Causes of Tides (2)
• Earth's continents are slightly stretched by the pull of the Moon.
• Earth's oceans, which move more freely, are stretched even more.
• This stretching effect creates two bulges of water on Earth, one facing the Moon, the other directly opposite it.
• These bulges are the high tides. • The bulging water also causes two areas with
low tides between the high tides. • As the Earth turns on its axis, the tide levels rise
and fall.

• The Moon, along with the Sun, causes the tides. • Whether it is high tide or low tide depends
mostly on where you are on Earth relative to the Moon.

Changing Tides
• Some newspapers print tide tables.
• A tide table tells the times at which high tide and low tide will occur.
• If you look at a tide table, you will notice that it often shows two high tides and two low tides each day.
• The tides change about every 6 hours and 15 minutes.

Tide Table
A newspaper gives the times for high and low tide.

Spring Tide
• A new moon phase and a full moon phase causes a major change in tides.
• This causes the Earth, moon, and sun to align which causes a very high tide called a Spring Tide. (2 spring tides per month)

Neap Tide• A 1st quarter and a third quarter
moon phase causes a major change in tides.
• This causes the Earth and moon to be at a right angle to each other which causes a extremely low tide called a Neap Tide. (2 spring tides per month)
