Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler Data for Irondequoit and Sodus Bays in Central New York, 2023

This data release contains acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data collected in 2023 from two uplooking tripods in bays of Lake Ontario in Central New York. Data were collected at Irondequoit Bay (USGS station number 431314077315901) and at Sodus Bay (USGS station number 431533076582101). Data are organized by bay in child item datasets containing the raw binary data files from the ADCPs as well as tabulated text files of echo intensity, backscatter, velocity, and ancillary data. Tables were created by processing raw data files in R-language oceanographic package OCE (Kelley and others, 2022) and TRDI WinRiver II (Teledyne RD Instruments, 2007). All aggregation, manual magnetic variation calculations, and post-processing were completed using Python libraries pandas (McKinney, 2010) and NumPy (Harris and others, 2020).

本数据集发布内容包含2023年在纽约州中部安大略湖海湾中，由两台搭载声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，ADCP）的向上观测三脚架采集得到的数据。数据采集点位为艾迪奎特湾（Irondequoit Bay，美国地质调查局站点编号431314077315901）与索达斯湾（Sodus Bay，美国地质调查局站点编号431533076582101）。数据按海湾分类存储为子数据集，其中包含声学多普勒流速剖面仪的原始二进制数据文件，以及回波强度、反向散射、流速与辅助数据的制表文本文件。上述制表文件通过使用R语言海洋学工具包OCE（Kelley等，2022）与TRDI WinRiver II（Teledyne RD Instruments，2007）处理原始数据文件生成。所有数据整合、手动磁偏角计算及后处理工作均借助Python库pandas（McKinney，2010）与NumPy（Harris等，2020）完成。
