Klaynos Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Tides are due mostly to the influence of the moons gravity. There is even a tide on dry land, but because rock is harder to move than water it is significantly smaller. The moon itself is locked and has a perminante tide due to the earth. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/tide.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
