Temperature, Salinity, and Water Chemistry Data from the Comprehensive Environmental Monitoring Program of the Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Plant at Keahole, Island of Hawaii, from Shallow and Deep Intake Pipes during 1982-2004 (NODC Accession 0001623)
Description
The NATURAL ENERGY LABORATORY OF HAWAII AUTHORITY (NELHA) is a state agency that operates a unique and innovative ocean science and technology park in Kailua-Kona on the island of Hawaii. It supports an Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) facility at Keahole Point on the west coast of the Island of Hawaii. Intake pipes at deep (675 m) and shallow (20 m) are utilized to record water characteristics. This data set includes roughly bi-weekly samples of temperature, salinity and water chemistry.
