HF radar surface currents data was collected by Kirincich as part of ongoing studies examining the spatial variability of the mechanisms and process that lead to the exchange of water masses across the inner part of the continental shelf. The data consists of estimates of the near-surface horizontal (East and North) ocean currents made via High Frequency (HF) radar-based remote sensing of the ocean backscatter spectrum. The dataset spans an 18-month period from February 2011 to August 2012. The effective measurement depth of the WHOI HF radars is 0.5 m below the ocean surface.
