Abstract: The quantitative analysis of Archean tidalites is hampered by the sparse rock record and a scarcity of suitable drill cores. Significant progress, however, has been made: (1) by developing probabilistic computational models of Earth tides in deep time, based on detailed paleobathymetric and paleogeographic scenarios, (2) by analyzing existing rhythmites through the integration of cyclostratigraphy, (3) by tracing the variation of the tidal dissipation factor through time, and (4) by considering the biological relevance of tidal environments for the development of early life.
