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

    Metadata Updated: May 10, 2024

    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.
