This produces lower than average high waters and higher than average low waters which are called neap tides. They occur approximately 7 days after spring tides.

Therefore, a certain place on this world will experience two high and two low tides each day. With these forces alone, we would not have spring tides and neap tides . ... Diurnal Tide: Only a single high and a single low during each tidal day; successive high and low waters do not vary by a great deal. Such tides occur,
