Satellite imagery shows that fronts and frontal eddies are widespread on the northwest European continental shelf. The implications for the numerical modelling of transports (for example, of pollutants) are discussed. A brief review of some models of shelf circulation is given. It is argued that to include fronts in models of shelf circulation requires a better understanding of dynamics on the frontal scale. A three-dimensional numerical model of eddy formation in a coastal front is then presented that reproduces many of the observed features.
