Description:
Abstract:
High-resolution measurements of waves, currents, water levels, temperature, salinity and turbidity were made in Hanalei Bay, Kauai, Hawaii during the summer of 2006. A series of bottom-mounted instrument packages were deployed in water depths of 10 m or less. These data support the ongoing process studies being conducted as part of the US Geological Survey Coastal and Marine Geology Program's Pacific Coral Project. Finalized data were provided in ASCII format for the waves, currents, and water levels. Other variables are summarized in graphics and described in a technical report.
Purpose:
To collect research-grade scientific data for providing baseline measurements to nearshore circulation studies. In particular, to better understand the impact of a river flood in a coral reef-lined embayment during quiescent summer conditions.

Data were recorded every 5 min (00:00,00:05, 00:10, etc); these 5-min samples were then averaged to hourly (00:00,01:00, 02:00, etc) samples.Inner Wall site, SC Reef site:The sample acquisition time was 18 min. Data were recorded every 20 min(00:00, 00:20, 00:40, etc). Waves: both sites:The sample acquisition time was 10 min. Data recorded once at the beginning of each even hour (00:00, 02:00, 04:00, etc).PARAMETERS:Tides, Currents:* Year Day: 2006 Decimal year day 2006; dates/times are local Hawaiian Standard Time (GMT-11:00).* depth: Water depth in meters; calculated as the mean water depth during the period of data acquisition.* U@X.Xmab: Eastward current velocity, in meters per second; calculated as the mean velocity during the period of data acquisition at the height X.X in meters above the bottom. This first U-column is the near-surface current.* V@X.Xmab: Northward current velocity, in meters per second; calculated as the mean velocity during the period of data acquisition at the height X.X in meters above the bottom. This first V-column is the near-surface current.* U@X.Xmab: Eastward current velocity, in meters per second; calculated as the mean velocity during the period of data acquisition at the height X.X in meters above the bottom. This second U-column is the near-bed current.* V@X.Xmab: Northward current velocity, in meters per second; calculated as the mean velocity during the period of data acquisition at the height X.X in meters above the bottom. This second V-column is the near-bed current.Waves* Year Day 2006 Decimal year day 2006; dates/times are local Hawaiian Standard Time (GMT-11:00).* Hsig - Significant wave height in meters; derived from the zeroth moment of the reported energy spectrum. Described as the "average height of the one third highest waves in the record". The US Army Corps of Engineers, Shore Protection Manual, 3-11, states that a useful estimate of significant wave height in deep water is defined as: Hs~4*sigma, where sigma is the standard deviation of the wave record. Statistically, the maximum wave height in the record is Hmax ~ 9*Hs/5.* Tpeak - Peak period, in seconds; inverse of the frequency with the highest energy in the reported spectrum.* DirTo Direction of wave propagation, in degrees, for the waves with the highest energy in the reported spectrum.METHODOLOGY:Tides, Currents:CRAMP site:A 600 kHz RD Instruments Monitor acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP)with an integrated pressure sensor was used to acquire this dataset.
