Neap tides occur when the Earth, the Sun, and the Moon form a right angle, at first and last quarters for the Moon. The Moon’s gravity is mostly responsible for our tides, but the Sun also plays a role (Figure 14.13). The Sun is much larger than our Moon. It has a mass about...
export databases, or create sets of HTML pages, each summarizing a month of tidal forecasts (see this example). These HTML pages can be downloaded into your PDA for a quick tidal reference in the field, or published

This is because, contrary to common belief, tides are not caused by the gravitational forces of the Moon or the Sunlifting upthe oceans—their gravitational pull is much too weak for that. Rather, tides are created because the strength and direction of the gravitational pullvariesdepending on w...
This was Rutschman’s fourth home run of the year and has 15 RBI in 33 games. The Tides have 14 straight games with a home run, which is the longest home run streak for the Tides this year, since a 10 game streak from June 6 to June 17. Tides take the lead!!! Who else but ...
But astronomers love this sort of complexity and with no small number of lines of computer code it is possible to calculate the actual position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and compute the net lunar/solar correction to g for any place and time on Earth. Ocean tides are even more ...

Oceanic tides lead to some of the largest currents of the world ocean and have important implications for oceanic circulation. In the last decade, the feedback effect of surface currents on the overlying winds has been shown to strongly regulate the ocea
What Darwin calculated for the Earth-Moon system was that the Moon will slowly spiral outward, away from Earth. As it moves farther away, it will orbit less quickly (just as planets farther from the Sun move more slowly in their orbits). Thus, the month will get longer. Also, because ...
ESD's unique drying principle allows for faster evaporation of water or solvent at moderate temperatures, producing powders with the desired particle and powder properties. ESD enables continuous and faster drying at moderate temperatures with high yields while maintaining the purity of the therapeutic ...
