Notes

Abstract:
"The goal of this study was to characterize the physical environment of Hurricane Hole using oceanographic methods in order to determine the possible effect of currents on the coral abundance and distribution. Water flow throughout the bay was studied by analyzing data from Lagrangian drifters, a moored current meter, and temperature and salinity sensors."
