The 18.6-year lunar nodal cycle may affect ecosystems on the Northwest Atlantic continental shelves
International audience As one of the foremost global forcings, tidal circulation exerts a pervasive influence on biological and physical processes occurring in the world's oceans on hourly to decadal time scales. This research identified the 18.6-year periodic variation in the lunar orbital pla...
