Note(s): Shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data from six synoptic surveys are combined with current meter, bottom pressure and wind data to describe tidal and low-frequency exchanges four tidal channels in the Middle Florida Keys. ADCP crossings provide transport rates for Channel 2, Channel Channel 5, Long Key Channel and the Seven Mile Bridge channels. Predictions of tidal current speed and water level channel provide mid-channel, vertically-integrated transport for times corresponding to total channel transport given by the ADCP data.
