Description

The dataset included in this repository was obtained during the project entitled “Propuesta metodológica para diagnósticar las consecuencias de las actuaciones humanas en el estuario del Guadalquivir” funded by the Autoridad Portuaria de Sevilla (APS), by the Consejería de Innovación, Ciencia y Empresa (Junta de Andalucía), CTM2011-22580, MedEX (CTM2008-04036-E) and PR11-RNM-7722. The data were collected in real time from 2008 until 2010 with a remote monitoring system installed by the Institute of Marine Sciences of Andalusia (ICMAN-CSIC) (Navarro et al., 2011).

 

The environmental quality station recorded turbidity, temperature, conductivity, normalized turbidity, dissolved oxygen, oxygen, oxygen saturation, percentage of oxygen saturation, fluorescence, normalized fluorescence, and salinity every thirty minutes. Current data were measured every 15 minutes by means of acoustic current profilers. The former datasets were obtained at several depths and different locations along the Guadalquivir estuary. Water level sensors recorded the position of the free water surface every 10 minutes at several locations along the Guadalquivir estuary. Wind velocity and direction and solar radiation were measured every 10 minutes in a meteorological station at the mouth of the Guadalquivir estuary.

Notes

More than 15 models were developed, i.e., models of distributed turbidity, tidal wave propagation, spatial and temporal distribution of salinity and temperature, etc. It was published more than 75 papers in peer-review journals, 8 chapters of books, more than 100 national and international conferences, 8 doctoral thesis and more than 15 final master thesis, final degree and final degree projects.
