Over the past decade False Bay has assumed a prime position in terms of research in to large South African bays. This is manifested by investigations that cover flow conditions modelling, thermal structure, management, biology and nutrients, geology, local meteorology, beaches, birds, air and marine pollution, recreation and demography. To enhance our grasp of the Bay’s functioning as a marine entity, its variability, circulation, structure and exchange processes, a number of current-meter and water-level moorings were deployed in September 1989. To augment the analysis, hourly wind records at D.F. Malan Airport and daily surf temperatures at Muizenberg and Gordon’s Bay were obtained.
