Index map Information Specialist Jessie Lacy Andrew Stevens Crew Jessie Lacy Hal Williams Jamie Grover Joanne thede Ferreira Purpose Characterize tidal currents and wave energy over the course of a winter season near Possession Pt, on the west side of Possession Sound, and Browns Bay, on the east side of Possession Sound. This work is part of a larger study comparing physical and biological attributes of the nearshore region at the two sites. Information to be Derived Time series of current speed and direction, wave height and direction, wave velocities, salinity, temperature, and depth. Grain size of bed sediments. Notes Coastal Habitats in Puget Sound, Beach and Nearshore Dynamics Task Got Help?
