Description
Freshwater plumes from rain run-off into Kaneohe Bay is the focus for the investigation. Measurements in this data set are currents as measured by an moored Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) and a Nortek current meter. Data were collected during November 2005 - March 2007 by members of the Department of Oceanography at the University of Hawaii. The ADCP sensor includes temperature at the transducer depth of 13 m. The Nortek current meter included ancillary measurements including temperature and pressure. Temperature and salinity data taken at 24 stations as part of this project are available from NODC accession 0039532.
