西佛罗里达大陆架的平均环流是使用长期的电流测量。东临佛罗里达半岛，西接墨西哥湾，西佛罗里达大陆架的平均气流大致沿等深线向南。平均速度矢量随深度有系统地转向，浅水区向岸，深水区向海。这种极化变化意味着平均流在浅水区是上升流，而从内陆架向海方向是下降流。这种组织良好的三维沿海海洋环流模式，通过前所未有的观测揭示，并根据风强迫和密度场调整进行解释，对渔业和赤潮发生具有重要意义。
The mean circulation on the West Florida Continental Shelf is described using long‐term current measurements. Bounded by the Florida peninsula to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west, the West Florida Continental Shelf mean flow is oriented approximately along‐isobath and southward. The mean velocity vectors veer systematically with depth, shoreward over shallow water and seaward over deeper water. This polarization change implies that the mean flow is upwelling over shallow water and downwelling seaward from the inner shelf. Such a well‐organized, three‐dimensional coastal ocean circulation pattern, revealed by an unprecedented set of observations, and explained on the basis of wind forcing and density field adjustment, has important implications for both fisheries and red tide occurrences.
