Abstract
The response of the Louisiana inner shelf to four different types of storms was recorded by current meters, wave gages, and water level gages mounted on bottom-resting instrument platforms; meteorological data were obtained on nearby oil production platforms. Data were obtained during Tropical Storm DEBRA, an extratropical cyclone, northers following polar front passages, and pre-frontal spring winds. Characteristics of each type of storm are described.
