		The Bungo Channel is one of the coastal areas facing the Pacific Ocean in the southwestern part of Japan.
		The “bottom intrusions” are shown to affect biological activity in the Bungo Channel.
		From observations, we have found that this intrusion pattern is similar to the bottom intrusion that occurs in the shelf slope region adjacent to the Gulf Stream and that the bottom intrusions in the Bungo Channel occur repeatedly between early summer and late autumn.

		When south-west Japan bordered on the continent, some species of iris and lilium moved and settled in the dry area of the highlands.
		On the other hand, the warm temperature plants, which grow in the tropical and sub-tropical areas, settled in the islands and cape of the Bungo Channel as these places have a warm and mild climate, influenced by the warm Kuroshio Current.

		Then the warm water is intruded along the east coast of the Bungo Channel as a first-mode baroclinic Kelvin wave, which is a manifestation of a Kyucho.

		Abstract: The generation and propagation mechanisms of a Kyucho and a bottom intrusion in the Bungo Channel, Japan, have been studied numerically using the hydrostatic primitive equations by assuming density stratification during summer.
		This heat source forces a warm disturbance, which intrudes along the east coast of the Bungo Channel as a baroclinic Kelvin wave (a Kyucho).
		After the topographic wave reaches the west end of the shelf break, it intrudes along the bottom layer of the channel as a density current (a bottom intrusion).

	ASLO Summer Meeting 2005, Santiago de Compostela, Spain (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The cold and nutrient-rich water upwelled from the shelf slope repeatedly intrudes into the bottom layer of the Bungo Channel that connects the Pacific Ocean and Seto Inland Sea, Japan, in summer.
		Although the Bungo Channel is relatively deep, these intrusions often supply nutrients to the shallow stratified coastal bays and are followed by phytoplankton bloom.
		To answer these questions, we made an intensive survey in Kitanada Bay in the eastern coast of the Bungo Channel and estimated the nutrient fluxes at the bay mouth continuously with a bottom mounted ADCP and repeatedly made water sampling.

		The objective of this program is to monitor the coastal water environment in the Bungo Channel continuously in real time.
		Therefore, even in summer when the Bungo Channel is stratified, if the nutrient rich water intrudes into the bottom layer, the nutrients are mixed up to the surface layer at this point.
		It indicates that even at the northern end of the Bungo Cannel, the nutrient concentration is affected by the intrusion of the water from the open ocean.

		A day or two later, a French gunboat was hulled three times as she dashed past the batteries at full speed, and a Satsuma vessel, which was mistaken for a foreigner, was sent to the bottom.
		This shrewdness probably was the salvation of the Wyoming, for the batteries at once opened a tremendous cannonade which would have sunk a dozen vessels in mid-channel, but which only tore through her rigging.
		Meanwhile the enemy kept up an unflagging fire from ships and batteries alike But their aim was wild; we noticed that the guns on shore were all fired and trained upon the channel, and we passed so close under them that their shot mostly went ten or fifteen feet overhead.

		In contrast, the earthquakes that occur periodically from the western part of the Seto Inland Sea to the area near the Bungo Channel appear to be related to the area of occurrence for deep earthquakes that occur below Kyushu (earthquakes within the subducted Philippine Sea Plate below Kyushu).
		Several earthquakes are known to have caused damage to the surrounding coastline from the western part of the Seto Inland Sea to the area near the Bungo Channel.
		Additionally, the 1968 earthquake at Bungo Channel (M 6.6) and the 1979 earthquake at the western part of the Seto Inland Sea (M 6.1), were events within the subducted plate at somewhat deeper locations.

		We deduced that the day-to-night fluctuations suggested characterizations of migration patterns of zooplankton or krill, because the signal intensity became relatively high during the night.
		The migration pattern tended to occur after a cold-water intrusion from the shelf slope region south of the Bungo Channel, which is known as a ‘ bottom intrusion ’.
		The bottom intrusion occurred six times during the observation period, and the tendency for the diurnal signal in the back scatter signal strength to develop after the bottom intrusion was observed in four of six cases.

		It is connected to the outer seas by three channels: the Kii Channel in the east and the Bungo Channel in the southwest linking it to the Pacific Ocean, and the Kanmon Channel in the west linking it To the Japan Sea (see Figure 5).
		The inflow through the first two channels of the warm waters originating from the Kuroshio greatly affects the oceanographic conditions of the sea, but the influence of the two differs, dividing the sea into two subregions, the east and the west (Figure 5).
		However, the inflow of waters from the Japan Sea is locally limited to the westernmost part of the sea owing to the very narrow topography of the Kanmon Channel.

		The seasonal and inter-annual variation in chlorophyll a concentration in the Kitanada Bay located at the eastern coast of the Bungo Channel was investigated using the data of oceanographic monitoring conducted by Tsushima town, Ehime Prefecture.
		There was a good relationship between the mean summer chlorophyll a concentration in upper 5 m in and outside of the Kitanada Bay and the bottom water temperature in the offshore region that is an indicator of the activity of the bottom intrusion from the shelf slope.
		It was supposed that the low chlorophyll a production in winter Kitanada Bay was caused by the decline of riverine input of nutrient and stop of nutrient transport from outside of the bay along the bottom due to the inverse estuarine circulation and the absence of bottom intrusion.
