Brief view of the dataset

Hydrodynamics, suspended sediment concentration and salinity distribution were measured at three fixed stations along the longitudinal direction of the estuary. The stations were located at Guadingjiao (M1), inside the bar (M2), and outside the bar (M3), and sampling was simultaneously conducted at neap tide (NT) from July 31 to August 1 and spring tide (ST) from August 8 to August 9 in 2017. All observation data has been compiled to include data from the surface to the bottom six layers within 26 hours. This directory contains the following datasets.
