摘要

The technique of 'velocity projection' (J. Geophys. Res. 106 (2001) 6973) is used to estimate the Sea-surface height field and its change over time front measurements of surface velocity made using a shore-based HF Doppler radar over a 30 x 30-km region of the continental shelf located near the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay (USA). projected Current profiles are compared with Measured currents from an array of acoustic Doppler current profilers, and the consistency and sensitivity of the projection to model assumption are also examined. Using projected values of the local surface slope, a model sea-surface eta(x,y) is least-Squares fit over the study region at each Measurement time. The error associated with these fits provides an internal check on the validity of the projection results. The slope of the model sea-surface shows a set-up toward the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay during downwelling-favourable winds and a counterclockwise rotation over the tidal cycle that is consistent with linear, shallow-water dynamics. A time series of sea-level difference extracted from the eta maps shows a dominant M-2 tidal signal that compares well with measurements of bottom pressure made at two moorings. With proper attention to limits of applicability, such projection-based sea-surface slope fields (as well as other projection results) may be useful in diagnostic calculations or as nowcasts for use with prognostic models.
