.... From the analysis of long-term current profile observations and drifter data we found that, on average, near-inertial oscillations have higher amplitudes outside of the areas of strong low-frequency currents associated with a Loop Current Eddy (LCE). Within the upper 200m of the water column, periods...

.... Generation of Combined LCE and Hurricane Metocean Approach I When a LCE affects a site, it could persist for weeks or even months. During that period, the current speed may fluctuate due to the meanderings of the eddy, however, the current direction is fairly stable. Approach I used measured current profile...

A scatter diagram consists of a number of full-depth current speed profiles and associated probabilities of occurrence for each profile. Scatter diagrams often consist of too many current profiles, which can make the VIV analysis...
