Salinity, Turbidity, Wind from the S1-GB pylon at the LTER site Delta del Po and Costa Romagnola (2012-2021)

The present database comprises observations spanning from 2012 to 2021, focusing on abiotic parameters collected from the S1-GB dynamic pylon, in the Northern Adriatic Sea (around 7 miles offshore within the Po Delta on a bottom depth of 22.5 m), Italy. Specifically, it encompasses measurements on atmospheric parameters above the water surface and measurements at a defined depth (https://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P01/current/ADEPZZ01/) of salinity (URI: https://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/OD1/current/SAL/) in PSU (Practical Salinity Units), turbidity (URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P25/current/TURB/) in NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units; http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P06/current/USTU/), wind speed (URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P25/current/WINDS/) in m/s (meters per second; http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P06/current/PMPS/), and wind from direction (URI: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/standard_name/wind_from_direction/) in degrees (angular degrees, 0 represents the true north; http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/P06/current/UAAA/). The S1-GB pylon is situated at 44,74° N; 12,45° E (WGS-84 coordinate system) and is managed by the Institute of Marine Science of the National Research Council (ISMAR-CNR) in Bologna. The dataset relies on a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file and it is composed by 82391 records offering an invaluable insight into the dynamic characteristics of the marine environment over nearly a decade. The S1-GB pylon is part of the site “Delta del Po and Costa Romagnola”, which belongs to the Long Term Ecological Research national and international networks (LTER-Italy, LTER-Europe and ILTER) and eLTER-RI. The site contributes also to the DANUBIUS and JERICO Research Infrastructures.
