Abstract
In a shoal environment traversed by tidal currents the flow near the sediments is retarded by friction over the bottom and is relatively turbulent. Measurements of the currents as retarded in this way are presented. The flow, 1 3/4 cm off the bottom, the level from which most of the sampling was done, is about 0.4 that of the tidal current above. This ratio persists through a wide range of currents.
