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.

The neap tide occurs 7 days after the spring tide. A neap tide is where the sun and moon are at their least aligned point. Not to scale. The diagram above shows yet again, the moon’s rotation around the earth (red), the Earth’s rotation around the sun (yellow).
Neap Tides. Occurrence: Neap tides occur when the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon form a right angle. This happens during the first and third quarter moon phases, about a week after spring tides. Gravitational Forces: During neap tides, the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun partially cancel each other out. The Sun's gravitational pull ...
28 Σεπ 2024 · Neap tide, tide of minimal range occurring near the time when the Moon and the Sun are in quadrature. This condition is geometrically defined as the time at which the line from the Earth to the Moon is at right angles to the line from the Earth to the Sun.
Neap Tides. The tidal range is smallest around the Quarter Moons /Half Moons because the gravitational force from the Moon and the Sun counteract each other at these 2 points of the lunar month. These tides are called neap tides or neaps, from Anglo-Saxon, meaning without the power. Neaps always occur about 7 days after spring tides.
These tides are referred to as neap tides; a low tide or one that is lower than average. A neap tide happens between two spring tides and occurs twice a month when the first and last...
Neap tides are a type of tidal pattern that occurs twice a month, during the first and third quarters of the moon. During neap tides, the difference between high and low tide is at its minimum. This phenomenon happens due to the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon on the Earth’s oceans.
