Node Cycle

Science / Tides and Currents / Node Cycle: Period of approximately 18.61 Julian years required for the regression of the Moon's nodes to complete a circuit of 360?° of longitude. It is accompanied by a corresponding cycle of changing inclination of the Moon's orbit relative to the plane of the Earth's Equator, with resulting inequalities in the rise and fall of the tide and speed of the tidal current.
