Abstract
Recently, some field observations show that currents in a bay respond to the change of wind as quickly as within two or three days. In this study, an attempt is made to analyze the characteristics of wind induced current in Tokyo Bay by remote sensing (NOAA-AVHRR). The result of the analysis for typical two series suggests that northern wind induces upwelling in the head and the east side of the bay like as ‘aoshio phenomenon’, and that the cross sectional gradation of water surface temperature changes by the alternation of the wind direction from south to north.
