Drifting Acoustic Measurements around C-Power's SeaRay WEC
The repository contains underwater noise measurements and associated metadata collected around C-Power's SeaRay wave energy converter on July 15, 2024 and July 16, 2024 while it was deployed at the U.S. Navy's Wave Energy Test Site (WETS) in Kaneohe, HI. Measurements were obtained using Drifting Acoustic Instrumentation SYstems (DAISYs). DAISYs consist of a surface expression connected to a hydrophone recording package by a tether. Both elements are instrumented to provide metadata (e.g., position, orientation, and depth). Information about how to build DAISYs is available at https://www.pmec.us/research-projects/daisy.
The repository's primary content is a compressed archive (.zip format), containing multiple MATLAB binary data files (.mat format). The structure of each file is included in the repository as a Word document (Data Description MHK-DR.docx). Each file contains time series information for a single DAISY deployment (file naming convention: WETS_DAISY_[Drift #].mat) consisting of processed hydrophone data and associated metadata.
During these measurements, C-Power's SeaRay was located at approximately 21.48112 N, 157.74451 W.
