Positive Tidal Forces by Sierra Layne

"Positive Tidal Forces" explores the vital and often overlooked role of tidal dynamics in shaping coastal ecosystems.
The book reveals how the rhythmic push and pull of tides, driven by the moon and sun, influences sea temperatures and, consequently, marine life.
Intriguingly, tidal forces affect water column mixing, which in turn impacts nutrient distribution and oxygen levels, directly influencing fish migration patterns.

The book delves into the mechanisms by which tidal forces regulate temperature in coastal waters and how these temperature variations act as crucial cues for fish.
It highlights how these interactions between tidal currents and coastal geography create unique thermal environments.

Progressing from basic tidal principles to case studies, impacts on fish and ecosystems, and concluding with conservation implications, the book offers practical recommendations for mitigating climate change effects on tide-dependent marine life.
