Tidal and long-term volume transport through Jewfish creek, florida keys

摘要

A 14-mo current meter record together with channel calibration measurements are used to investigate the dynamics of long-term volume transport though Jewfish Creek, the main channel connecting Blackwater sound in northeastern Florida Bay with Barnes Sound, a southern extension of Biscayne Bay. Seasonal variations dominate the long- Term flow through this channel as water generally flows into Blackwater Sound during Fall, winter and early spring months, then out of the sound in late spring and summer.
