Keywords:

Ocean current,Visualize,Wind

We thought that there will be a relationship between an ocean current and a sea breeze.
As the basic research,we develop a water tank(*1)
which is able to visualize the water flows. After that, we have studied a wind effect using a PC wind fan,
*1) To hoist flags in 15 places into the tank, We measured the water flow directions.)
Things to prepare:
