Tides

Three basic tidal patterns occur along the world's major coastlines. In general, there are two high tides and two low tides every day in most areas. If the two high tides and the two low tides are approximately the same height, this is referred to as a semi-diurnal or semi-daily high tide. If the high and low tides differ in height, this is referred to as a mixed semi-diurnal tide.

Dinurnal (top left). An area has a diurnal tidal cycle if it experiences a high tide and an ebb tide every lunar day. Many areas in the Gulf of Mexico have this type of tide.

Semidiurnal tidal cycle (top right). An area has a semi-diurnal tidal cycle when it experiences two high and low tides of approximately equal magnitude each lunar day. Many areas on the east coast of North America have these tidal cycles.

Mixed semidiurnal tidal cycle (lower centre). An area has a mixed semidiurnal tidal cycle if it experiences two different high and low tides on each lunar day. Many areas on the west coast of North America have these tidal cycles.

Today's lucky 10,000 moment

I learned that the moon is not sloshing the sea about to make tides as it moves around us

It creates a steady pull of gravity to a high tide position and the rotation of our position on earth moves us into and out of that field

I just need things to be still for a moment.

This still life was moving as I took the shot , but serene just the same

Text: The tide is a dangerous thing here, coming in all at once in a maelstrom of crashing waves. We race sand skips in the danger zone, risking our lives for some cash, and the thrill.
