Suggested data citation: Flament, P. and Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS). 2015, updated 2016. Near-Real Time Surface Ocean Radial Velocity, Hawaiian Islands, Station KAP. [Indicate temporal subset used.] Distributed by the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) High Frequency Radar Network (HFRNet). http://pacioos.org/metadata/UH_KAP.html. Accessed [date].
Abstract:
High-frequency radar (HFR) measurements of water velocity are radial in direction relative to the radar location and representative of the upper 0.3-2.5 meters of the water. These data are from station KAP at Kapolei near Barbers Point on the west shore of the island of Oahu in the State of Hawaii.
Purpose:
PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in the U.S. Pacific Islands region.
