Abstract A decade (2007–2016) of hourly 6‐km‐resolution maps of the surface currents across the Mid‐Atlantic Bight (MAB) generated by a regional‐scale High Frequency Radar network are used to reveal new insights into the spatial patterns of the annual and seasonal mean surface flows.

The Effect of Wind Forcing on Modeling Coastal Circulation at a Marine Renewable Test Site
The hydrodynamic circulation in estuaries is primarily driven by tides, river inflows and surface winds. While tidal and river data can be quite easily obtained for input to hydrodynamic models, sourcing accurate surface wind data is problematic ...

Evaluating the surface circulation in the Ebro delta (northeastern Spain) with quality-controlled high-frequency radar measurements [PDF]
The Ebro River delta is a relevant marine protected area in the western Mediterranean. In order to promote the conservation of its ecosystem and support operational decision making in this sensitive area, a three-site standard-range (13.5 MHz) CODAR ...

CODAR Operations in the Straits of Florida
In a program sponsored jointly by NOAA and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) 7th District in Miami, two Coastal Ocean Dynamics Application Radar (CODAR) systems have been installed and are being operated in southeast Florida. The program objective is to provide NOAA with an operational CODAR demonstration capability to generate and disseminate, via the ...

Anthropogenic oil in the ocean is of great concern due to its potential immediate and long‐term impacts on the ecosystem, economy, and society, leading to intense societal efforts to mitigate and reduce inputs. Sources of oil in the ocean (in the order of importance) are natural marine seepage, run‐off from anthropogenic sources, and oil spills, yet ...

Radio and Clutter Suppression Algorithm Based on Spatial Multiple Beams for Small‐Aperture HFSWR
Radio and clutter that cover a certain number of range‐Doppler‐angle cells have a major impact on the detection performance of a high‐frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR) system. Especially for a small‐aperture array, the angle spectrums of radio and clutter suffer from severe broadening, so the targets that are more easily submerged in the broadened ...
