Estuarine ADCP, CTD, and Meteorological Data for Circulation Reversal Study

1.6 MB of .mat files containing ADCP, CTD, and meteorological station data support a study on wind-preconditioned reversal of subtidal circulation in a low-inflow estuary. The dataset was created by Braulio Juarez and last updated in May 2026. It is licensed for non-commercial use and cannot be shared with third parties or used for profit.

Use Cases

• Modeling subtidal circulation reversals based on ADCP current profiles.
• Analyzing water column stratification based on CTD salinity and temperature data.
• Investigating wind preconditioning effects on estuarine flow using meteorological station data.
• Validating hydrodynamic models of low-inflow estuaries.

Strengths

• Data size is precisely 1.6 MB, indicating a focused, manageable dataset.
• Includes three complementary data types: ADCP, CTD, and meteorological station data.
• License is clearly defined as CC-BY-4.0 for non-commercial use.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
