The electric field 1 km from the coast at Sidmouth due to sea tides in the English Channel is 5 × 10-5 V m-1 (peak to peak) at the time of spring tides and 2.5 × 10-5 V m-1 (peak to peak) at the time of neap tides. A magnetic gradiometer was used to record the difference between the total magnetic fields at Sidmouth and at Exeter, which is 20 km from the coast. The difference is separated into a solar component and a lunar component of period 12.42 h. The latter variation is interpreted quantitatively in terms of a tidally induced electric current system in the English Channel. The magnitudes of other magnetic variations of 12.42 h period are discussed. Now with B.P. (Alaska) Inc., North Slope Oil Well, Alaska, U.S.A.
