Tide predictions tide: The periodic rise and fall of a body of water resulting Tide predictions tide: The periodic rise and fall of a body of water resulting from gravitational interactions between Sun, Moon, and Earth. Tide and Current Glossary, National Ocean Service, 2000 According to NOS, changes in water level from non-gravitational forces are not “tides”.
