Improved tidal charts for the western part of the North Pacific Ocean.
The co-tidal charts of M2 and K1, and the co-range charts of 2 (M2十S2) and 2 (K1 + O1) for the western part of the North Pacific Ocean drawn by Ogura (1933) have been re-examined and revised on the basis of new tidal data. The co- tidal charts of S2 and O1. and ratio charts of S2/M2 and 01/K1. have also been prepared. The co-tidal charts of M2 and S2 indicate a very weak counterclockwise rotation in the Philippine Sea. The comparison between M2 and S2, and between K1 and 01 show that they generally have the same features in phase and amplitude. But, a peculiar bending of the S2 nodal line, which is not found in the M2 tide, are seen in the Caroline Islands.
