Eddy Duck Data: Measured Three-Dimensional Structure Of Surfzone Velocities

This archive contains data from the 2011 EddyDuck experiment. Three-dimensional structure of surfzone velocity fields was measured using 12 horizontally-spaced Nortek Aquadopp current meters, each instrument measuring vertical profiles of water velocity. The experiment was conducted by folks from Washington State University and Oregon State University, with help from staff of the USACE's Duck Field Research Facility. Funding from the US National Sciences Foundation, Award OCE-1061692 An in-review JGR-Oceans manuscript “Depth-Dependence of Nearshore Currents and Eddies” discusses the observations. Data are contained in two zip files. File summary.zip unzips to give a folder containing summary data in matlab 2015b format, and a pdf readme file explaining details. Folder full.zip unzips to give a folder containing full time-resolution data in ASCII format, and a readme file explaining details. Questions to [e-mail]
