Description
Time series data of water surface elevation and wave height were acquired at ten locations for 517 days (in three separate deployments) off the north coast of Roi-Namur Island, Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, in support of a study on the coastal circulation patterns and the transformation of surface waves over the coral reefs. The relative placement of sensors on the reefs were as follows:
ROI13W1 and ROI13E1 – fore reef
ROI13W2 and ROI13E2 – outer reef flat
ROI13W1 and ROI13E1 – middle reef flat
ROI13W1 and ROI13E1 – inner reef flat
