Analysis of subsurface currents in the West Arm of Glacier Bay, Alaska

An Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) was used to measure the tides and currents of Glacier Bay. Data points were limited both temporally and spatially, but a general image of the currents at three depth ranges was determined for the West Arm of Glacier Bay. One area for further study is to cl...
