DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe purpose of this report is to present that portion of the Tracadie Bay data set that relates to the barotropic circulation of the bay. These data include: sea level anomalies, currents (from both moored current meters as well as transect data from a boat-mounted ADCP), drifter deployments and wind observations from a meteorological station. The study outlines some basic analyses of these data in order to provide for a physical characterization of the bay from the perspective of its barotropic circulation. Both time and frequency domain descriptions of the seal level, wind and current data are presented. Spatial patterns in the currents in the bay are also considered using an under-ice-current meter array, transect data from an ADCP and drifter trajectories.--Publisher's description.
