Abstract
Temperature and salinity observations were made in Hawke Bay (east coast, North Island) and in the near shore coastal shelf water immediately to’ the south. Water in the bay was cooler and less saline than the shelf water on the open coast to the south. Hydrological analysis confirms that the main inflow is westward along the approximate centre line of the bay.Keywords
