Description
|
Direct flux measurements collected at The Army Corp Field Research Facility, Duck, NC, during the DUring Nearshore Event eXperiment (DUNEX) for May 2022. Data were collected from the end of the Field Research Facility pier which is approximately 500 m offshore and on a beach tower. The data were recorded at 20 Hz with a Campbell Scientific IRGASON (integrated infrared gas analyzer and sonic anemometer) and an Gill R3-50 sonic anemometer, respectively, both14.4 m above mean water level. This data provided here are mean meteorological and derived variables. If you are interested in the high frequency data (u', v', w', t') please contact hpotter@tamu.edu directly. (2023-09-18)

Notes
| File is in .mat (MATLAB) format with the following columns for the BEACH and PIER. Both anemometers were at height z = 14.4 m: 1) date number; 2) wind speed (m/s); 3) aerodynamic drag coefficient, CDz); 4) friction velocity, u* (m/s) ; 5) wind direction (deg from N); 6) Obukhov length, L (m); 7) roughness length, z0 (m); 8) coefficient of determination for cumulative summation of uw (used for QC); 9) index for onshore wind (1/0). |
