Data for: Reiss et al. (2025) - Unveiling the complex structure of vertical mode-two Kelvin waves driving strong nearshore currents in a large deep lake

Combining field observations, 3D numerical modeling, and particle tracking, we demonstrate that previously undetected V2 Kelvin waves are common in Lake Geneva (Switzerland/France) during summer. The data include measurements from moored Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs), vertical thermistor lines, and the corresponding 3D modeling and particle tracking results. The three-dimensional model used in this study is based on the MIT General Circulation Model (MITgcm, http://mitgcm.org/, https://doi.org/10.1029/96JC02775 ).
