    "descript": "Pressure loggers were deployed at Dorado Beach, Puerto Rico along a cross-shore transect on the forereef (sites TS, T1 and T2), reef crest (site T3) and reef flat (sites T4, T5, T6, T7, T8, T9). Additionally, pressure loggers were placed west and east to the transect (sites W1 and E1, respectively), and at a channel in the northeast side of the embayment (site C1). These instruments were deployed from October 2022 to March 2023, with the exception of site T9, which was deployed from December 2022 to March 2023. This data release also includes three deployments at site TS from August 2022 to October 2022, from October 2022 to March 2023, and from March 2023 to December 2023. A significant swell event in December 2022 may have induced slight shifts in the pressure sensor's position.",

Distributions are records of currents, physical properties, or biogeochemical water properties, often based on shipboard surveys or coastal monitoring programs, and maps of currents or water property climatology, which indicate the expected locations of features under present conditions or apply a classification structure like that of CMECS. Assessments are data that provide information about the ecological or economic values, impacts, drivers, connections, or functions of water column features in their present distributions. Predictions are the results of models projecting future changes to currents or other persistent oceanographic features (for example, clines, stratification, connectivity, linkages, and zones of separation) due to climate change, ice-cap melt, and changing freshwater inputs; models predicting the ecological or economic impacts of these changes; and scenario-testing models comparing ecological or economic outcomes of different management actions."
