Note

Field data of tidal current speeds collected January 9–31, 1990, in Sebastian Inlet, which connects the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian River Lagoon on the east coast of central Florida, show that the average Eulerian and Stokes residual currents are both lagoonward. This pattern can be used to explain the long-term trend of accumulations of marine sediments on the flood tidal delta adjacent to the lagoon end of the inlet.
