"Fig. 8
. Interpolated temperature, and vertical / onshore – offshore current
vectors on 3 July. Positive is offshore. Horizontal currents were rotated
q'
= 6° with respect to the east-west axis. The lower panel is an
amplification of the upper panel. Temperature loggers were at 1, 3, 5, 7,
9 and ~ 11 (floating) m above the bottom, while the Doppler current meter
was at the bottom, about 15 m offshore from the temperature mooring.
Currents were advanced 100 s to match temperature. Temperature and
currents were sampled at 8 s and 10 s rates, respectively. Current vectors
are shown every 40 s, and the top bins were removed as they were
contaminated by surface phenomena. Missing current vectors around 111 min
did not pass several acoustic data quality criteria or were removed from
raw data when vertical currents > I35I cm/s."
