Improved Co-tidal Charts around Osaka Bay, Seto Inland Sea. - Influence of Coriolis force on the tidal distribution -

Using the equation of motion for tide and tidal current around Osaka Bay, momentum balance of tidal waves are investigated and precise co-tidal charts are edited. Some distinctive characteristics are recognized in the charts such as nodal area of M2 tide shifted to the northern corner of Awajishima. These distributions are almost explained by the influence of Coriolis force on tidal current. In addition, generation of shallow water tide of M4 around Akashi-strait, which w
