Abstract: | The generation, variation, and disappearance of the thermohaline front at the mouth of Tokyo Bay were investigated using water
temperature data obtained by a commercial ferry boat in 1987. The thermohaline front was generated south of Kan-non-zaki in
mid November 1987 after the beginning of sea-surface cooling. It moved northward to Kan-non-zaki until the end of the year.
The thermohaline front was most intense in February and March and disappeared in late March 1987 when sea-surface warming
began. |
