Description:

The Florida Current is perhaps one of the most well observed oceanic flows in the world. This warm surface current flows northward through the Straits of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico to 27°N, where it exits the Straits and becomes the Gulf Stream. Along the way the Florida Current forms both the western boundary current of the subtropical gyre and the upper limb of the Meridional Overturning Circulation. Modern observation of the Florida Current at 27°N began in 1982, when the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) began funding a project to measure the volume transport and hydrographic structure of the flow between Florida and Grand Bahama Island. The project changed names several times over the next 20 years, and since the year 2000 the Florida Current observations have been a component of the Western Boundary Time Series (WBTS) project, with funding from the NOAA Climate Program Office - Ocean Observing and Monitoring Division.
