- Definition
- A tide of decreased range (or tidal currents of decreased speed) occurring semi-monthly as the result of the moon being in quadrature.
- Description
- The neap range of the tide is the average range occurring at the time of neap tides and is most conveniently computed from the harmonic constants. It is smaller than the mean range where the type of tide is either semi-diurnal or mixed and is of no practical significance where the type of tide is predominantly diurnal.
