These high resolution currents provide an opportunity to examine submesoscale coastal ocean processes forced by energetic Florida Current intrusions and vortices across the shelf break.

DESCRIPTION:
With very high resolution of 900m, FKEYS-HYCOM is capable of simulating sub-mesoscale eddies which can be captured with high frequency radar, like this captured by WERA in January, 2005.
