What other affects does the moon have upon the earth that may be or may not be a controversy?

Now, the question is:
Does it affect smaller bodies of water and/or the solids and life within?

Seas, Great Lakes, smaller lakes, rivers... right down to the most important, small jug of freshly aged home made wine in the barrel?
