Abstract
The oceanography of the North Sea is described, with emphasis on physical aspects; bathymetry, the dominant tides, surges and waves which form the dynamical background for, for example, dispersive process and stratification; the seasonal cycle; water types, frontal boundaries and circulation; sea level trends and statistics.
Some constituent distributions are described, including mobile sediments, with some discussion of their relation to differing inputs and dispersive influences.
The status of data, process understanding and modelling is discussed.
