Tidal currents are:

• the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon, Sun, and rotation of the Earth.

• the horizontal movement of water associated with the rise and fall of the tide.

• the vertical movement of water due to temperature differences.

• the flow of water in rivers and streams.

The Earth rotates beneath tidal bulges due to:

• gravitational pull of the moon and sun

• Earth's magnetic field

• ocean currents

• atmospheric pressure
