Description

Supporting data for figures in "Wind Effects on Near and Midfield Mixing in Tidally Pulsed River Plumes" by Preston S. Spicer, Kelly L. Cole, Kimberly D. Huguenard, Daniel G. MacDonald, and Michael M. Whitney. The scientific journal article is published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans (2022). The main objectives of this study on the tidal Merrimack River plume are (1) quantify the net influence of straining, advection, and mixing on tidal plume stratification under realistic winds and (2) evaluate the mechanisms responsible for variability in mixing within the near and midfield plume regions over multiple tidal pulses under differing winds. A numerical modeling approach is taken. Data are from the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) results for the study area. Files are in MATLAB data format and are named FigXX_data. mat. Variable names and units correspond to graphed data of each figure in the journal article.
