The tidal range is the vertical difference between the high tide and the succeeding low tide. Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of the Earth.
It is true that both of these types of waves may be very destructive. However, there is a significant difference between tsunamis and tidal waves based on their origins and characteristics. A tidal wave is quite a predictable event impacted by the atmosphere.It is a result of the daily tides caused by the imbalanced, gravitational influences of the Moon, Sun, and planets (hence the name). Tidal waves are most pronounced in narrow bays or in rivers along the coast.lthough, the impact of a tsunami could be influenced by the tidal level at the time it strikes. Bonus Facts: 1  The highest tidal waves are found in the Bay of Fundy, in the Canadian province of New Brunswick, where the water level can rise with the tide by 50 feet.
