Description
Time series data of water surface elevation and wave height were acquired at ten locations for 153 days off San Juan, on the north coast of Puerto Rico, in support of a study on the transformation of surface waves and resulting water levels over the coral reefs. The relative placement of sensors on the reefs were as follows:
PRI18E01, PRI18W01 – fore reef
PRI18E02, PRI18W02 – reef crest
PRI18E03, PRI18W03 – outer reef flat
PRI18E04, PRI18W04 – middle reef flat
PRI18E05, PRI18W05 – inner reef flat
PRI18E06 – lagoon
PRI18E07 – near-shore
