Upper ocean response to a major hurricane in the Gulf of Mex-ico: An examination of NCOM-AMSEAS, deep-sea glider, and thermistor datasets

Figure S1: Map of sea surface elevation were obtained from AMSEAS (American Seas) analyses, a regional version of Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM). Figure S1 further shows that as HL traversed the GoM (in dash black), it intensified continuously as depicted by the colored circles described in the legend. The inverted cyan triangles denote daily mean positions of NG645 in track, 9 days ahead of HL (08/16 to 08/26 23z). The star, in magenta, represents the location of the StM.
