Figure 2
Bathymetric map of the region around the LS1 and LS2 moorings, highlighting the 30 m and 40 m isobaths. Axis x and y represent perpendicular and parallel directions to the isobaths, respectively. The NCEP point indicates the position of wind data.

Figure 3
Time series of the current vectors measured at LS1, 24 January, 2014 to 4 July, 2014. The scale is indicated in the upper left corner. Vector direction is according to the wind rose in the upper right corner. Abscissa axis: time (mm/dd/yy). Ordinate axis: depth (m).

Figure 4
Time series of the current vectors measured at LS2 (July to December, 2014). The scale is indicated in the upper left corner. Vector direction is according to the wind rose in the upper right corner. Abscissa axis: time (mm/dd/yy). Ordinate axis: depth (m).

Figure 5
Time series of the current vectors measured at LS² (January to June, 2015). The scale is indicated in the upper left corner. Vector direction is according to the wind rose in the upper right corner. Abscissa axis: time (mm/dd/yy). Ordinate axis: depth (m).

Table 2
First statistical moments of the component perpendicular to the isobaths (u) of the current speed vector at LS1 and LS2. Level = L (m); Minimum = Min (ms^-1); Maximum = Max (ms^-1); Average = Avg (ms^-1); Standard Deviation = SD (ms^-1).

Table 3
First statistical moments of the component parallel to the isobaths (v) of the current speed vector at LS1 and LS2. Level = L (m); Minimum = Min (ms^-1); Maximum = Max (ms^-1); Average = Avg (ms^-1); Standard Deviation = SD (ms^-1).

Table 4
Variances of the components perpendicular to the isobaths (u) of the current speed vector at LS1 and LS2 on the levels: near the surface (S), midwater (M) and near the bottom (B). Variance-Total was estimated from the original series and the Variance-Filtered was estimated from the filtered series (sub-inertial). Variance-Explained is the percentage ratio between Variance-Filtered and Variance-Total.

Table 5
Variances of the components parallel to the isobaths (v) of the current speed vector at LS1 and LS2 on the levels: near the surface (S), midwater (M) and near the bottom (B). Variance-Total was estimated for the original series and the Variance-Filtered was estimated for the filtered series (sub-inertial). Variance-Explained is the percentage ratio between Variance-Filtered and Variance-Total.

Table 6
Amplitude (10^-2 ms^-1) of the components perpendicular (u) and parallel (v) to the isobaths of the tidal current speed vector at LS1 on the levels: near the surface (S), midwater (M) and near the bottom (B). The tidal components M2, S2, K1, O1 and M4 are the most energetic ones.
