  "term": "Equilibrium solar tide",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The theoretical tide that would be produced by the gravitational forces of the Sun on a hypothetical ocean covering the entire Earth, assuming the ocean instantly responds to these forces. This model provides a baseline for understanding the solar component of actual tides. It predicts two high tides and two low tides per day.",
