The nature of the internal tide in Indian Arm is discussed. In the winter of 1983--1984, this internal tide was observed to change from a predominantly M2 internal response to a predominantly K1 one. This change in the response is explained as a partial resonance response of the system. During the 1983--1984 winter, the resonance period steadily increased from 14 hours at the start to 22 hours at the end. It is suggested that the enhanced internal response at the K1 frequency, late in the winter, is due to resonance. The fitting of normal modes was done to look at the energy flux in Indian Arm. About 20--30% of the energy flux is found to return from the head of the inlet, a finding supporting the resonance hypothesis, which requires energy to be reflected from the head. ¿American Geophysical Union 1987
