Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler Data for Irondequoit Bay, New York, 2023
Description
This child item data set contains acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data collected during 2023 from an uplooking tripod in Irondequoit Bay in New York (USGS station number 431314077315901). This data set includes the raw binary data files from the ADCPs as well as tabulated text files of echo intensity, backscatter, velocity, and ancillary data. Tables were created by processing raw data files in R-language oceanographic package OCE (Kelley and others, 2022) and TRDI WinRiver II (Teledyne RD Instruments, 2007). All aggregation, manual magnetic variation calculations, and post-processing were completed using Python libraries pandas (McKinney, 2010) and NumPy (Harris and others, 2020).
