REU: An Intensive Observational Study of the Middle AtlanticCoastal Current

本项目将研究沿着向南流动的沿岸流 南部新泽西和特拉华州使用的数据收集期间， 密集的野外训练 具体目标包括： 目前的空间结构，包括细节 合并其新泽西和特拉华州分行附近或 在特拉华州湾内， 结构在当前。 进一步的目标包括评估- 利用跨海岸和沿海岸的动量平衡， CTD、声学多普勒和海流计数据。

This project will study the coastal current flowing south along southern New Jersey and Delaware using data collected during an intense field program. Specific objectives include determina- tion of the spatial structure of the current, including details of the merging of its New Jersey and Delaware branches near or within Delaware Bay, and the existence of wave-like or eddy structure in the current. Further objectives include assess- ment of the across shore and alongshore momentum balances using CTD, acoustic doppler, and current meter data.
