Tidal current patterns between Mana Island and Titahi Bay, west coast, north island

N. M. Ridgway

Abstract

Abstract Observations of surface water movements in a coastal channel using fluorescein dye are described and the results discussed. The time of change of direction of the tidal stream is compared with the time of high water, and circulation patterns within Titahi Bay are related to the direction of tidal currents through the channel.
