Answer to the LA Times crossword clue Half-moon tide featured in the LA Times puzzle is NEAP.
"Neap" refers to a specific type of tide that occurs when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other relative to the Earth. During neap tides, the gravitational forces exerted by the sun and moon partially cancel each other out, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides.
This phenomenon typically occurs twice a month, during the first and third quarters of the moon, creating a distinct tidal pattern. The term "neap" is derived from Old English, meaning "to lessen," reflecting the reduced tidal range during these periods.
