Effects of Hurricane Harvey in San Antonio Bay-Hydrography data, Feb. 2017 - July 2019

Abstract:

The effects of Hurricane Harvey were studied. This dataset includes hydrographic measurements (temperature, salinity, oxygen, pH, refraction) from San Antonio Bay, northwest Gulf of Mexico estuaries along the Texas coast. They were taken during eleven quarterly sampling trips on a small boat, Feb. 2017 - July 2019.

Description

Methods & Sampling

Hydrographic measurements were made at each station with a YSI 6600 multi-parameter instrument. The parameters were read from the digital display unit.

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing Notes:
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
- renamed columns: DATE to date_local, Time to time_local
- added column for ISO_DateTime_UTC
