Discussion
Consider the following statements about spring and neap tides.
1. Springs occur at new moon and at full moon each month.
2. Neaps occur at the first and last quarters of the moon.
3. Springs take their name from the season of the year.
Answer: D
The first two are correct and describe the fortnightly cycle. The third is a common misunderstanding, since the word refers to the water springing up rather than to any season. Springs occur in every month of the year alike.
