    I remember hearing in an astrophysics class that the gravitational pull
    causing peaks and dips on the ocean surface was caused by the
    interaction of the earth's gravity and the gravitational pull from space
    and the moon. Without the tidal swells, the surface of the ocean is
    as varied as the surface of land.
