Description Current measurements were carried out using a recording current meter across the continental shelf off Bombay, Maharashtra, India at 4 stations from an anchored ship. Power spectra were computed for selected lengths of records. Spectral energy was predominantly contributed by tidal frequencies. Effect of direct wind drift was observed in the spectrum in the frequency range 0.01-0.03 cy/min. During windy periods the records showed high frequency oscillations whose frequency was 0.1 cy/min. These oscillations were induced by the movements of the anchored ship resulting from wind and surface currents
