Hydrodynamic and Oil Spill Modeling: Corpus Christi Bay

Simulations presented on this web page show the speed and direction of water movement, i.e., currents, in Corpus Christi Bay.  Currents are shown for a moving three-day window (beginning yesterday and finishing tomorrow) and slide forward each day.  Flows are computed for about four weeks prior to today and extend through about a week beyond today, but only results for a three-day window are shown.

Corpus Christi Bay (Updated: ) Models are run and updated daily.

Wind Vector Time Series

Vectors point in DIRECTION OF WIND FLOW; NOT in direction wind comes from.  All times are in local (Central) Time

Scalar Displays of Wind

Scalar Direction displays direction wind comes FROM.
