DevinA land tide refers to the rising and falling of the earth's surface due to the gravitational pull of the moon and sun. This phenomenon is similar to ocean tides but occurs on land, causing the ground to move up and down cyclically. Land tides are more subtle and less noticeable compared to ocean tides.

intertidal zone
What is a incoming tide?
An incoming tide refers to the period when the water level is rising towards the shore due to gravitational forces from the moon. It is typically associated with higher water levels and can create strong currents in coastal areas.
What forms the boundary between land and the ocean?
The high and low tide lines along the shore.
What is a stretch of muddy land uncovered at low tide?
A stretch of muddy land uncovered at low tide is typically referred to as a tidal flat or mudflat. These areas are exposed when the tide goes out and are important habitats for various species of plants and animals that have adapted to live in intertidal environments.
