Abstract
⺠We develop a modified measure of finite-time flow compressibility of sea surface reflecting clustering of tracers. ⺠We track offshore areas which are likely to form clusters of floats. ⺠Finite-time flow compressibility maps for the Gulf of Finland are calculated for selected seasons. ⺠High finite-time compressibility identified near the River Neva mouth ⺠Extensive seasonal variability in finite-time compressibility in the Gulf of Finland
