Near-Real Time Month Average Surface Ocean Velocity, U.S. West Coast, 6km Resolution

Description

Surface ocean velocities estimated from HF-Radar are representative of the upper 2.4 meters of the ocean. The main objective of near-real time processing is to produce the best product from available data at the time of processing. Radial velocity measurements are obtained from individual radar sites through the U.S. HF-Radar Network. Hourly radial data are processed by unweighted least squares on a 6km resolution grid of the U.S. West Coast to produce hourly near real-time surface current maps. The month average is computed from all available hourly near real-time surface current maps for the given month.
