  abstract = {{O}cean tides can drag along the atmosphere above and cause current-induced winds of up to 1.5 m/s while dissipating tidal energy, according to observations and high-resolution numerical simulations of ocean and atmospheric models in the {E}nglish {C}hannel. {O}ceanic tides lead to some of the largest currents of the world ocean and have important implications for oceanic circulation. {I}n the last decade, the feedback effect of surface currents on the overlying winds has been shown to strongly regulate the ocean circulation. {H}ere we present evidence, using coupled high-resolution ocean-atmosphere simulations and in situ measurements, that ocean tides can drag the atmosphere above. {T}he current-induced tidal winds expand across the atmospheric boundary layer, while dissipating tidal energy. {T}hey are likely present in many shelf regions of the world ocean, with an amplitude of about one-third of the underlying tidal currents, i.e., up to 1.5 ms(-1). {C}onsideration of surface tidal winds can have implications in areas ranging from climate modeling to wind farming.},
