Twice a month, when the Earth, Sun, and Moon line up, their gravitational power combines to make exceptionally high tides, called spring tides, as well as very low tides where the water has been displaced. When the Sun is at a right angle to the Moon, moderate tides, called neap tides, result.
A spring tide—popularly known as a "King Tide"—refers to the 'springing forth' of the tide during new and full moon. A neap tide —seven days after a spring tide—refers to a period of moderate tides when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other.

19 Οκτ 2023 · kinetic energy produced by the movement of air, able to be converted to mechanical power. The regular rise and fall of the ocean’s waters are known as tides. Along coasts, the water slowly rises up over the shore and then slowly falls back again.
One week later, when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, the solar tide partially cancels out the lunar tide and produces moderate tides known as neap tides. During each lunar month, two sets of spring tides and two sets of neap tides occur (Sumich, J.L., 1996).
1 Δεκ 2006 · The neap-spring tidal cycle is influenced by the amplitudes of tidal constituents and the convergence or divergence of semidiurnal or diurnal tides, which are related to...
22 Μαρ 2024 · What is a Neap tide? A neap tide occurs during the quarter moon phases when the Sun and Moon are at right angles to each other. This angle makes their gravitational forces work against each other, leading to weaker tides. The ocean experiences the least difference between high and low tides during neap tides, creating milder tidal conditions.
