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 ...

We’ve all heard of ocean tides, but have you ever heard of Earth tides? Yes, just like the ocean, the Earth’s crust also moves up and down daily. Just like ocean tides, Earth tides occur because of ...

The same tides that affect ocean waves can trigger earthquakes along California's San Andreas Fault, and scientists unexpectedly find that these quakes are more likely to happen as tides are ...

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Did you know that the entire Earth is being ripped out from under us? Or that the Earth's tides are like a massive, cosmic game of juggling? Find out ...

Our atmosphere does have tides, and the gravity of the moon is part of why they exist, but it turns out that the moon’s influence on our atmosphere is absolutely swamped by the influence the sun has ...
