Version 2 - Tidal Energy Resource Characterization, Velocity and Turbulence Measurements, Cook Inlet, AK, 2021
Version 2 of MHKDR submission #475, which also contains the metadata for these measurements.
Files here are stored in netCDF4 format, which can be read in Python using the "netcdf4" or "xarray" packages or in MATLAB using the "ncread()" function.
Changes are as follows:
MWM1 (mid-water mooring 1) ADV
- Time length of data now ends when bottom track data is lost
- Improved filtering and quality control of bottom track measurements - improved motion correction of velocity
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved velocity, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), Reynolds stress, time interval (TI), and dissipation rate estimations
MWM1 Down-Looking ADCP
- Improved filtering and quality control of bottom track measurements - improved motion correction of velocity
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TI and dissipation rate estimations
- Removed TKE calculations - accuracy could not be verified
MWM1 Up-Looking ADCP
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TI and dissipation rate estimations
- Removed TKE calculations - accuracy could not be verified
- Velocity unchanged
MWM2 ADV
- Removes data after instrument was hit by debris
- Improved filtering and quality control of bottom track measurements - improved motion correction of velocity
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved velocity, TKE, Reynolds stress, TI, and dissipation rate estimations
MWM2 Down-Looking ADCP
- Improved filtering and quality control of bottom track measurements - improved motion correction of velocity
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TI and dissipation rate estimations
- Removed TKE calculations - accuracy could not be verified
MWM2 Up-Looking ADCP
- Improved filtering and quality control of bottom track measurements - improved motion correction of velocity
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TI and dissipation rate estimations
- Removed TKE calculations - accuracy could not be verified
THEOM (bottom lander) ADV
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TKE, Reynolds stress, TI, and dissipation rate estimations
- Velocity unchanged
THEOM ADCP (up-looking)
- Improved Doppler noise subtraction - improved TKE, TI, and dissipation rate estimations
- Removed vertical TKE component (w'w' bar)
- Velocity unchanged
