Tide Graph: Life’s a Beach The ocean is something that has mesmerized me since I was young. I used to sit in the car at our local beach and stare into the open water and watch the waves roll by. My dad would patiently explain the dynamics of the ocean‚ making sure to warn me of the many hazards involved. Then I would watch as my father and all the “uncles” fish and surf.

It has 2.2 more power on tides than the sun does. The Moon and earth apply a gravitational pull on each other‚ and since most things on earth is pinned down they stay in place. But‚ the oceans being fluid can be pulled toward the moon causing tides.And since the earth is rotating while this is happening‚ two tides occur each day. While the Sun

Tides are the periodic rise and falling of large bodies of water. The word tide is a term used to define the alternating rise and fall in sea level relevant to the land produced by the gravitational attraction of the moon and the sun.

may seem like a very amazing phenomena but in fact it’s quite the opposite. Red tides are becoming more and more harmful to not just the sea life it’s consumes but to us humans as well. When we use pesticides and other man made chemicals‚ we are washing them away without a care of what happens next. In doing so‚ they are eventually ending up back into our oceans and cause these harmful algal blooms‚ known as Red Tide. Most of these algal blooms are toxic‚ causing death to marine life around it‚ making
