The data from the mooring line deployments in 2016 and 2018 analyzed in this manuscript is available in .mat and ASCII format as described below: ADCP (ADCP_VTR_2018.mat and ADCP_VTR_2016.mat) ul - array of zonal velocity component: bin cells X time (timestep is half-hour) [m/s] vl - array of meridional velocity component [m/s] wl - array of vertical velocity component [m/s] adcp_pressure - ADCP recorded pressure data [mH2O]*1000 adcp_time - time vector for the ul, vl, wl arrays and for adcp_pressure series. [julian days] adcp_depth - the depth of each bin cell of ul, vl e wl arrays [m] Thermohaline data (Temp_sal.mat) T - array of temperature data depth X time (half-hour timestep) - [degree Celsius] S - array of salinity, extrapolated from temperature data depth X time (half-hour of timestep) [PSU] time - time vector for T, S arrays. [julian days] depth - depth position vector for T, S arrays. [m]
