caused by the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon on the water in Earth’s oceans. Types of tides are classified by the position of the sun and moon. These tides are called spring tides and neap tides‚ and can be more extreme due to the perigee and apogee of the moon. Tides also follow a schedule which is directly related to Earth’s regular rotation‚ and the moon’s regular orbit (McConnell‚ et al). Spring tides occur when the gravity of the moon is combined with the gravity of the sun‚ and neap

Introduction Eclipses can only occur when the Sun‚ Earth‚ and Moon are all in a straight line. Solar occur at new moon‚ when the Moon is between the Sun and Earth and in contrast‚ lunar eclipses occur at full moon‚ when Earth is between the Sun and Moon. The apparent size of the Moon is roughly the same as that of the Sun‚ with both being viewed at close to one-half a degree wide. The Sun is much larger than the Moon but it is the precise vastly greater distance that coincidentally gives

and the moon. Tides are the cyclic rising and falling of earth’s ocean surface caused by the tidal forces of the moon and the sun acting on the earth . Tides cause changes in the depth of the sea and produce oscillating currents known as tidal streams‚ making prediction of tides important for coastal navigation. The strip of seashore that is submerged at high tide and exposed at low tide‚ the intertidal zone ‚ is an important ecological product of ocean tides. The relative distance of the Moon from
