Abstract
The specific objective of this research is to investigate the characteristics of temperature changes between sea water and the covered material on the sea bottom, aiming to delineate the formation of thermal gradient due to the construction of large pore layer on the sea bottom. Field observations of water quality were conducted consecutively, and the formation of thermal gradient and the diffusivity coefficient were investigated based on the observation data. It is understood that the diffusivity coefficient in the large pore layer is smaller than that in the bottom sediment, resulting in the formation of a strong stratification. The large pore layer plays a major role in suppressing the increase in temperature of the bottom sediment.
