Spring tides occur when the Earth, sun and moon are aligned. Despite its name spring tides have nothing to do with the Spring season. It was derived from the concept of "springing-forth" . They occur at twice each lunar month, bringing higher tides during high tide and lower tides during low tide.

Why do many historians believe the aryans migrated from central asia to the indian subcontinent
N76 [4]
About 500BCE, the Aryans began to compose a body of texts called Vedas based on their traditional stories. Veda is a Sanskrit word that means knowledge. The Rig Veda is a collection of more than 1000 poems that survives to this day. The influence of these stories of the Aryan people on the subcontinent is why historians label the period of Indian history lasting from about 1500BCE to 322BCE as the Verdict Age. SORRY IT'S SO LONG
