Abstract:
      Three kind of application of ADCP is reported for long-term monitoring in coastal sea.(1)The rourine monitoring of water qualities.The water quality and ADCP echo data (600 kHz) observed in the long-term are analgzed at MT (Marine Tower) Station of Kansai International Airport in the Osaka Bay,Japan.The correlation between the turbidity and echo intensity in the surface layer is not good because air bubbles generated by breaking wave are not detected by the turbidity meter,but detected well by ADCP.When estimating the turbidity consists of plankton population from echo intensity,the effect of bubbles have to be eliminated.(2) Monitoring stirring up of bottom sediment.The special observation was carded out by using following two ADCP in the Osaka Bay,One ADCP was installed upward on the sea.The other ADCP was hanged downward at the gate type stand about 3 m above from the bottom.At the spring tide,high echo intensities indicating the stirring up of bottom sediment were observed.(3) The monitoring for the boundary condition of water mixing at an estuary.In summer season,the ADCP was set at the mouth of Tanabe Bay in Wakayama Prefecture,Japan.During the observation,water temperature near the bottom showed remarkable falls with interval of about 5~7 d.When the bottom temperature fell,the inflow current with low echo intensity water appears at the bottom layer in the ADCP record.It is concluded that when occasional weak northeast wind makes weak coastal upwelling at the mouth of the bay,the combination of upwelling with internal tidal flow causes remarkable water exchange and dispels the red tide.
