Spring-neap Modulation

Spring–Neap Modulation is a hydrodynamic phenomenon in tidal current dynamics that represents the periodic variation in tidal amplitude and flow velocity resulting from the interference of the semi-diurnal lunar and solar tidal constituents, distinguishing it from other tidal modulations by its fortnightly cycle driven by the syzygy and quadrature phases of the Moon and Sun.
