Tidal, low-frequency and long-term mean transport through two channels in the Florida Keys

Current meter and water level data from two tidal channels in the Florida Keys are combined with acoustic Doppler profiler data to quantify tidal, low-frequency and long-term mean volume transport between Hawk Channel, on the Atlantic side of the Keys, and Florida Bay, on the Gulf side. Current meters in Long Key Channel and the Seven Mile Bridge channels were maintained for time periods of 279 and 259 days, respectively.
