SandyDuck 1997 timeseries
Description
Time series (2Hz) of waves and currents in 5 alongshore arrays from near the shoreline to 7 m water depth at the USACE Field Research Facility, Duck, NC, USA collected between Sep 1 and Oct 31 1997.
The README describes the files with time series of pressure and velocity (2 Hz), the files with the X-Y-Z locations of the sensors, and provides links to the nearly daily bathymetric surveys and the incident (8-m water depth) wave conditions (frequency-directional spectra)
