The field current observations were carried out to examine the seasonal variation of surface horizontal circulation in Mutsu Bay throughout the year. The observed flows in winter/summer heartily support the previous model studies for wind-induced current. That is, we could confirm that anti-clockwise/clockwise eddies at western/eastern parts of the bay, respectively, were generated by the horizontal shear easterly-wind in summer, and two vortices at the eastern part of bay were generated by the spatial uniform westerly-wind in winter.
