The Moon Is Moving Farther From Earth Each Year, and Tides Are the Reason
The moon's gravity causes high and low tides, something known as the tidal force. As the tidal force shifts Earth's mass, it ...
Earthquakes can be triggered by the Earth’s tides, UCLA scientists confirmed Oct. 21 in Science Express, the online journal of Science. Earth tides are produced by the gravitational pull of the moon ...
Scientists have captured magnetic signatures from Earth's ocean tides in the finest detail yet. These faint signals, which certain satellites can detect when flying at very low orbits, may hold clues ...
King tides will be seeping into South Florida in the coming days, but some will be stronger than others. The tides will recur ...

🌕 The moon is moving away from Earth: what are the consequences?
The Moon appears unchanging in the night sky, but its movement hides a slow transformation. For decades, scientists have observed that our satellite is gradually moving away from Earth, year ...
We have crossed six of the nine boundaries within which human life on Earth will still be possible for future generations. That is not good news. Can the tide still be turned? The planetary boundaries ...
The "King Tides" are on the way! From Nov. 15-17, the next King Tide event will return to the Bay Area. King Tides, also known as Spring Tides, are naturally occurring and predictable events revolving ...
Faults in the Ridgecrest, California area were very sensitive to solid earth tidal stresses in the year and a half before the July 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake sequence. Faults in the Ridgecrest, ...
That the surface of the earth itself may be subject to tides like those of the ocean has long seemed probable,* but there has been no tidal gauge to measure these heavings accurately. At the ...
