COAST-HF - SCENES station dataset from 2015 to 2022 - environmental parameters

The SCENES monitoring station is part of the SNO COAST-HF national network (ILICO-RI), and the regional PHRESQUES observation network. The station includes i) a surface buoy equipped with a CTD and an optical turbidity and fluorescence sensor measuring approximately 1.5m below surface and ii) a benthic station equipped with an optical turbidity sensor and an up-looking ADCP (before Oct. 2017 – optical sensor ~ 1.4m above the bed, after Oct. 2017 : 0.5m above the bed). Due to technical problems, the time series, for all sensors, is discontinuous.
Optical turbidity measurements can be transformed in suspended particulate matter concentration (SPMC, in g/l) using a calibration relationship built from the PHRESQUES field campaigns (SPMC=0.00156*NTU+0.001).
The acoustic backscatter signal was processed to retrieve SPMC values using optical turbidity sensors and observations from the PHRESQUES Field campaigns. 
This dataset allows to investigate hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics from the tidal scale to the seasonal and interannual scale from water level, current velocity, salinity, temperature and SPM concentration measurements. Please refer to associated publications.

SCENES监测站隶属于SNO COAST-HF国家网络（ILICO-RI）及区域PHRESQUES观测网络。该监测站包含两套观测系统：i) 水面浮标系统，搭载温盐深仪（CTD）与一台安装于水面下约1.5米处的光学浊度与荧光传感器；ii) 底栖观测站，搭载光学浊度传感器与一台向上观测的声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP）——2017年10月前，该传感器安装于底床上方约1.4米处；2017年10月后，安装位置调整为底床上方0.5米处。受技术故障影响，所有传感器的时间序列数据均不连续。
光学浊度测量值可通过基于PHRESQUES野外调查建立的校准关系式，转换为悬浮颗粒物浓度（SPMC，单位：g/l），校准公式为：SPMC=0.00156*NTU+0.001。
声学背散射信号可结合光学浊度传感器数据与PHRESQUES野外调查观测结果，处理得到SPMC数值。
本数据集可通过水位、流速、盐度、温度及SPM浓度观测数据，研究从潮汐尺度到季节及年际尺度的水动力与泥沙动力过程。请参阅相关出版物。
