Abstract
Experimental data fr6m a study of the Boca Raton ocean outfall on December 16, 1980 is presented. A vertical plane near the outfall was mapped using a Neil Brown CTD; a horizontal plane at a depth of one meter was profiled with a towed instrument platform housing two temperature probes and a fluorometer. The relevance of this data with respect to mathematical modeling is discussed. Coherence analysis of the sensor outputs show that temperature sensors alone cannot be used to reliably map the spreading effluent field.
