A 14-mo current meter record together with channel calibration measurements are used to investigate the dynamics of long-term volume transport through Jewfish Creek, the main channel connecting Blackwater Sound in northeastern Florida Bay with Barnes Sound, a southern extension of Biscayne Bay. Seasonal variations dominate the long-term flow through this channel as water generally flows into Blackwater Sound during fall, winter and early spring months, then out of the sound in late spring and summer. Low-frequency reversals occur over time scales of several days to about 2 wks throughout the study period.
