Some places, like the Bay of Fundy, have extreme high vs low tides, but other places (I can’t think of one) have almost invisible tide level changes. I have wondered this for years: since all tides have the same cause, why aren’t all tides the same? For the record, I do understand why tides vary through the month, but no idea why they vary geographically.
In: Physics
Things like wind also affect the tide, also high and low pressure weather systems. It’s not just the moon and sun’s gravity.
