Analysis of remotely sensed data, both CZCS and AVHRR will be used to describe the eddy field in the wake of Barbados Island. These analyses will be combined with in-situ physical oceanographic data to investigate the dynamics of the island- generated eddies. Finally this information will be combined with concurrently collected samples of the reef fish to investigate mechanisms for retention near the island. This grant is part of a special program at NSF to encourage full participation in the sciences by underrepresented groups; MRI.

将对CZCS和AVHRR的遥感数据进行分析， 用于描述巴巴多斯岛尾流的涡流场。 这些分析将与现场物理分析相结合。 海洋学数据来调查岛屿的动态- 产生了漩涡。最后，这些信息将与 同时采集珊瑚鱼样本进行调查 岛附近的保留机制。 这笔赠款是 NSF的一项特别计划，鼓励充分参与 代表性不足的群体的科学; MRI。
