Abstract

The tidal front formed in heating period was surveyed in the sea area southern east of the Kurushima Channel, Japan by CTD every month from April to October, 1998. The flow structures of the tidal front were observed by ADCP in June, 1998. The following results were obtained; 1) The tidal front was located at about 5 or 6 miles apart eastward from the east entrance of the Kurushima Kaikyo Traffic Route on the observation line in the last period of flood. 2) Existence of the bottom enhanced topographic eddy at the rearward of the shoal was suggested by the tidal flow patterns and the shapes of tidal front.
