Single-Beam Bathymetry Data Collected in 2022 from Point Aux Chenes Bay, Mississippi

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS – SPCSMC), conducted a single-beam bathymetry survey within Point Aux Chenes Bay, Mississippi (MS), in June 2022 under the USGS Field Activity Number (FAN) 2022-320-FA. The data was collected from two personal watercrafts (PWC): research vessel (R/V) Shark (subFAN 22CCT09, WVR1) and R/V Chum (subFAN 22CCT10, WVR2). A re-survey of just the north and south subtidal reefs occurred in November 2022 (subFANs ...

Beach Profile Data Collected from Isla Verde, Puerto Rico (April 3, 2024)

This dataset, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC), provides beach profile data collected at Isla Verde, Puerto Rico. Data were collected in 2024 on foot by a person equipped with a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver and antenna affixed to a backpack outfitted for surveying location and elevation data (XYZ) along pre-determined transects. The horizontal position data are given in the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) ...

Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler time series measurements collected at Madeira Beach, Florida

Teledyne© RDI Sentinel-V Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs) were deployed at Madeira Beach, Florida at site MB2, located 1.9 kilometers (km) from the shoreline at 5.6-meters (m) depth (27.78897, -82.81229). The ADCPs measured pressure, bottom temperature, velocity profiles, and derived waves parameters. This data release includes data from March 2021 to September 2023. ADCP data collection at this site has been ongoing since 2017 and will be added in future releases.
