"";"";"";"Current, wind and temperature data collected in the Florida Keys
passages using meters for direct observations.  Transport through the channels is
 influenced by the tides and winds.  Seasonal variations in currents reflect the
 changing weather patterns in the region.  Heat flux measurements were conducted
 at selected locations.  ";"The purpsoe of these studies was to define the net
circulation, the driving forces and thermal energy signatures of the region.  
Transport of suspended material, nutrients, and larvae are strongly affected by the
 water mass movement through the passages of the Florida Keys.  ";"Journal 
articles published by Dr. Ned Smith and Mr. Patrick Pitts have transmitted the 
analyses of these studies to the professional research community in such journals as
the Bulletin of Marine Science, Journal of Physical Oceanography, and monographs.
