الملخص EN

A new small drifter prototype for measuring current immediately below the free surface in a water basin is proposed in this paper.

The drifter dimensions make it useful for shallow water applications.

The drifter transmits its GPS location via GSM phone network.

The drifter was used to study the trajectory of the surface current in the Muggia bay, the latter containing the industrial harbor of the city of Trieste (Italy).

The analysis has been carried out under a wide variety of wind conditions.

As regards the behavior of the drifter, the analysis has shown that it is well suited to detect the water current since its motion is marginally affected by the wind.

The study has allowed detecting the main features of the surface circulation within the Muggia bay under different meteorological conditions.

Also, the study has shown that the trajectory of the surface current within the bay is weakly affected by the Coriolis force.
