Time-averaged currents in the Northeast Corridor Reserve during November 2013.

Published by University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez Campus | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 09:16 PM | Dataset Last Updated: October 30, 2014 at 12:00 AM
A 2D numerical model, CMS-Flow, was implemented for the Northeast Corridor Reserve (NECR) using a telescoping grid. Tide and wind forcing was provided to the model and the model was validated using water level data from the Fajardo NOAA NOS tide gauge and with current data from the CariCOOS Buoy in Vieques sound. The model was run from November 1-30, 2013 and the currents were averaged in time in order to determine the spatial distribution of the time-averaged current field within the NECR. All dates and times are UTC. Current speeds are in meters per second.
