Abstract
    The formation of shallow-water tidal eddies in the lee of an island is studied by means of a three-dimensional marine model. The mathematical and numerical models are detailed. The role of the advection terms, the upwelling velocity and the stresses due to subgrid-scale phenomenons is briefly investigated. Comparison of the numerical results with the available data field is outlined.
