Layer: St. Croix Wave Energy: Wave-induced flow near the sea floor (meters/second) (ID: 607)

Parent Layer: Resilience Indicators: Threats

Name: St. Croix Wave Energy: Wave-induced flow near the sea floor (meters/second)

Display Field: HABITAT

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: Wave data were obtained from a CARICOOS SWAN wave model (SWAN_Aggregation/Best Time Series) shared on a CARICOOS OPeNDAP server (http://52.55.122.42/thredds/dodsC/swan/SWAN_Aggregation_best.ncd.html). The source data have a spatial resolution of 0.01 degrees on a geographic grid (WGS84) and temporal resolution of 3-hours from noon on 13 Oct 2012 through 1500 hours on 21 Nov 2021. There is a gap in the data between noon on day 222 of 2013 and 1500 hours on day 363 of 2014. The data extend from 64W to 68W and 17N to 19.5N. Wave-induced flow near the sea floor (i.e., representative bottom orbital velocity) was calculated from depth and mean significant wave height and period following Wiberg and Sherwood 2008. These data were used to calculate resilience scores for the US Virgin Islands Coral Reef Resilience Prioritization project. The US Virgin Islands (USVI) Coral Reef Resilience Prioritization project identified coral reefs and underwater habitats in the USVI that may have high resilience properties and potential to withstand current and forecasted climate change conditions, such as thermal stress, increased wave action, and coral disease outbreaks.
