Two different methods are used here to provide residual flow information for offshore and coastal waters. The principle source of data was Proudman Oceanographic Centre (POL). Using a specially developed Extended Atlantic Margin Model results showed similar patterns of residual current speed and direction irrespective of depth or season. Obtained from the digitisation of georeferenced maps and images. This dataset is associated with a series of digital maps/spatial information layers that are designed to help identify Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs) in UK waters. (see Project MB0102: 'Accessing and developing the required biophysical datasets and datalayers for Marine Protected Areas network planning and wider marine spatial planning purposes' - Report No.9, Task 2G Residual Current flow Datalayer).
