Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spring tides occur when the Earth, Sun, and Moon are aligned and their gravitational forces combine to create the highest tides. Neap tides, on the other hand, occur when the Sun and Moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower tides. Direct, eustatic, and opposite are not commonly used terms to describe types of tides.
