AI overview

Tides are the regular rise and fall of ocean water levels caused primarily by the Moon's gravitational pull on Earth's oceans, with the Sun also playing a smaller role in this effect. Tides matter because they affect coastal areas significantly, influencing activities like navigation, fishing, and coastal planning.
