Time-series oceanographic data from the Monterey Canyon, CA October 2015, March 2017, CCE15M3A02tu

Time-series oceanographic data from the Monterey Canyon, CA October 2015 - March 2017 - CCE15M3A02tu. Time-series data of water depth, velocity, turbidity, and temperature were acquired between 5 October 2015 and 21 March 2017 within the Monterey Canyon off of Monterey, CA, USA.

In order to better understand the triggering, progression and evolution of turbidity currents in Monterey Submarine Canyon, an experiment was designed to directly measure velocity, suspended sediment and physical water properties (temperature, salinity and density) along the canyon axis during an 18-month period.

Three moorings in the upper canyon (MS1, MS2, MS3) containing oceanographic instruments and Anderson- type sediment traps were deployed during three consecutive six-month periods (A: October 2015 - April 2016; B: April - October 2016; C: October 2016 - March 2017). In addition, a bottom platform to the South of the canyon head (MS0) housed instrumentation to measure currents and waves on the adjacent shelf. The mooring diagram image files are a generalized representation of the deployed instrumentation at each site, and are included as a visual aid for understanding the sampling environment. A text file of the specific sensors listing the parameters measured is also included.

时间序列海洋学数据集：加利福尼亚州莫尼特雷峡谷，2015年10月至2017年3月 - CCE15M3A02tu。该数据集记录了2015年10月5日至2017年3月21日期间，位于美国加利福尼亚州莫尼特雷峡谷内的水深、流速、浑浊度和温度等水文学参数。为深入理解莫尼特雷海底峡谷中浑浊流的形成、发展和演变过程，研究人员设计了一项实验，旨在对峡谷轴线上持续18个月的流速、悬浮沉积物以及物理水文学特性（温度、盐度和密度）进行直接测量。在峡谷上部区域（MS1、MS2、MS3）部署了包含海洋学仪器和安德森型沉积物收集器的三个浮标，分别在三个连续的六个月期间进行（A：2015年10月至2016年4月；B：2016年4月至10月；C：2016年10月至2017年3月）。此外，在峡谷入口南部还设置了一个底部平台（MS0），用于测量相邻浅滩上的电流和波浪。所提供的浮标图图像文件是对每个站点部署的仪器的概括性表示，并作为理解采样环境的视觉辅助。同时还包括一个文本文件，列出了具体传感器及其测量的参数。
