In this project the PI's will complete the analysis and interpretation of hydrographic, current meter Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, and satellite data acquired during a field experiment near Barbados. The immediate objective is to quantify the effects of island wakes on the coastal circulation around the island. Longer term objectives include the relationship between the circulation and larval reef fish dispersion, retention, and recruitment.

在这个项目中，PI将完成对水文学、海流计声学多普勒海流剖面仪和巴巴多斯附近实地试验期间获得的卫星数据的分析和解释。目前的目标是量化岛屿尾迹对岛屿周围沿海环流的影响。较长期的目标包括环流和鱼苗扩散、保留和补充之间的关系。
