Description
The dataset contains measurements of water discharge by Teledyne RDInstruments RioGrande WorkHorse ADCP unit with a working frequency of 600kHz mounted on a moving boat in 6 areas over large rivers of Russia. The dataset comprises the four largest Arctic Siberian rivers and included continuous ADCP measurements done in 2018-2020 at constant crossection at each river located upper from the impact of recipient seas (tides, surges) near the cities of Salekhard (Ob River), Igarka (Yenisey River), Zhigansk (Lena river) and Chersky (Kolyma River). Another area includes ADCP measurements over 20 transects (named S1…S26, fig. 2) in the lower 200 km of the river Selenga on 27-31July 2018. Additionally, the dataset contains ADCP measurements at 38 points along the Moskva River (named M1, M2…) and 17 tributaries (named T01, T02…) done during 2019-2020.
