Florida Department of Environmental Protection tide gauge data from the North Atlantic Ocean and Florida coastal waters. The dataset contains barometric pressure, conductivity, temperature, and water level measurements. Data collection occurred from January 1, 1977 to December 31, 1999.
Use Cases
- Analyze long-term sea level trends using the water level data from 1977 to 1999.
- Correlate barometric pressure readings with water level data to study storm surge dynamics.
- Model coastal water temperature changes over a 22-year period.
- Assess salinity variations in coastal waters using conductivity measurements.
Strengths
- 22-year temporal coverage from 1977 to 1999.
- Data collected at fixed platform locations, ensuring consistent measurement points.
- Includes four distinct physical oceanographic parameters.
Limitations
- Exact sample size, row count, and temporal resolution are unknown.
- Data is over 20 years old, with no updates since 1999.
- Geographic coverage is limited to specific fixed platforms in Florida coastal waters.
