| Alternate names | DUNEX Topobathy Surveys | ||||||||
| Purpose | We propose to collect detailed topobathy measurements spanning the nearshore and beach/dune throughout the storm and recovery period(s) during hurricane season. Observations from this site will provide insight into cross-shore storm processes and impacts, including wave transformation and shoreline water levels, rapid changes in coastal elevations, on/offshore sediment exchanges, and resulting habitat changes. These detailed measurements will provide a more complete understanding of storm impacts and recovery on natural beach/dune systems, which will allow us to validate and improve forecasts of water levels, coastal change, and habitat. | ||||||||
| Location | Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, Hatteras Island, North Carolina, United States, Atlantic Ocean | ||||||||
| Summary | DUNEX Pea Island topobathy field work was completed on 10/25/2021. Bathymetry was collected on five different days with the SSV and Yellowfin of WHOI. The heli-kite and Ricoh GRII with plastic ground control points were used to survey eight times. Foot surveys with the SP80 were done on thirteen days. Aeropoints were deployed twice. Two Ricoh GRIIs were broken during field work. Two reference marks were established in the Parking lot of the boat launch on Pea Island. | ||||||||

| Comments | This FA is part of DUNEX and covers the topography and bathymetry data while 2021-028-FA covers the cross shore array, grain size, and wave data. Topobathy is related to similar data that was collected in the same spot by Peter Traykovski of WHOI in the donated data 2020-024-DD | ||||||||

| Data type: | Sidescan, Single Beam, Navigation, Photo |
| Equipment | Usage description | Data types | Datasets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digital camera | On this day the first camera (Ricoh GRII) broke and a back-up SONY ILCE-6000 was used to finish the survey. | Photo | (no data reported) |
| Cerulean Sonar S-500 Sounder | Attached to the WHOI Yellowfin. | Single Beam | 1 |
| PingDSP 3DSS-DX-450 | Attached to Needlenose | Sidescan | 1 |
| Spectra Precision SP80 | Spectra Precision equipment used as a rover and base station to collect Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) data (i.e. elevation, position) of a surface or ground control point | Navigation | 3 |
| PPK GPS | An Emlid Reach M2 was attached/hot shoed to the Richo GR II to take a GPS position every time a picture was taken. A base station was also simultaneously taking information. After the field activity the GPS log and base logs were processed. Emlid was also attached to SSV. | Navigation | (no data reported) |
| Echosounder ECS 24D | Attached to SSV-Small Surf Vessel, Echologger ECS D24 used to collect bathymetry data | Single Beam | 1 |
| UAS- heli-kite | Used as the platform to attach the Ricoh GRII cameras | Photo, Navigation, Video | (no data reported) |
| Aeropoint targets | The AeroPoints are deployed as ground control points and have an internal GPS that are uploaded and post-processed in the Propeller network. | Navigation, Transects, Profiles | (no data reported) |
