Kīholo Bay Submarine Groundwater Discharge Dataset_v2

Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) dataset from Kīholo Bay, Hawai’i Island from 2014-2016. Radon data (Bq/m^3) were collected using the SGD Sniffer (Dulai et al., 2016), an autonomous gamma spectrometer. Salinity was derived from specific conductivity collected by an onboard CTD Diver. SGD (cm/day) was calculated using a radon mass balance following methods described in Dulaiova et al., 2010.
