The recovered current velocity, bottom pressure, and bottom temperature time-series data are presented here in an ACII format. Purpose: These oceanographic data were collected for the purpose of examining flow through Virgin Passage (between Culebra, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas, USVI) and into and out of Vieques Sound (between Culebra, Puerto Rico and Vieques, Puerto Rico) in the US Caribbean. Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Range_of_Dates/Times: Beginning_Date: 20100303 Ending_Date: 20110423 Currentness_Reference: These data are valid for the period collected only. Status: Progress: Complete Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency: once data are processed to a final state, they are no longer updated.
