Abstract

This study was carried out in 1994 as a chain program for putting the tidal dam to practical use. The experimental dam was made by reconstructing a nursery facility for prawns in possession of Hukaura Fisheries Cooperative Association near the mouth of Uranouchi bay. The dissolved oxygen improvement effect of buoyant jet was examined as a factor of environment reformation by tidal dam. To identify the species of fish and shellfish living in the reservoir, they were caught at the reservoir gate when the tidal dam was demolished. The problems of the practical tidal dam was discussed. The tidal dam has several advantages. First it uses the tidal energy-an extremely stabilized natural energy. Second, it contributes to the environment improvement of bay area. Besides, it can do much for developing the sightseeing and leisure facilities.
