NASA Sees Tides Under Ocean’s Surface

The video explains how the moon's gravitational pull generates tides, including internal tides, which are crucial for oceanic and atmospheric processes. Internal tides, formed by underwater topography like the Hawaiian Ridge, move heat into the ocean's interior, potentially mitigating global warming. Despite their small surface appearance, they play a significant role in climate regulation and are studied using satellite data.
