Continuous water velocity data of currents in nearshore Lake Erie in the vicinity of Villa Angela Beach and Euclid Creek, Cleveland, Ohio, summer 2019
Continuous measurements of nearshore currents in Lake Erie in the vicinity of Villa Angela Beach and Euclid Creek, Cleveland, Ohio, were recorded during the summer of 2019. Currents were measured every 15 minutes with a 5-minute averaging interval using two different acoustic Doppler velocity meters (ADVM). The first instrument (ADVM 1) was a SonTek 500 kHz Argonaut-SL ADVM mounted to the northwest side of the southwest caisson near the entrance of Wildwood Marina about 8 feet above the bed (approximately mid-depth at the time of installation) at a true heading of 307 degrees. ADVM 1 was configured with a 6.6-ft blanking distance, ten 33-ft measurement cells, and a total profiling distance of 335 feet from the face of the instrument. The geographic coordinates of ADVM 1 in decimal degrees are 41.588491°N, 81.567238°W. ADVM 1 was installed and started recording data on June 12, 2019, and stopped recording on August 28, 2019. The second instrument (ADVM 2) was a SonTek 1500 kHz Argonaut-SL ADVM mounted to the southeast side of the northeast caisson near the entrance of Wildwood Marina about 8 feet above the bed (approximately mid-depth at the time of installation) at a true heading of 134 degrees. ADVM 2 was configured with a 5-ft blanking distance, ten 6-ft measurement cells, a total profiling distance of 65 feet from the face of the instrument, and a reversed X-velocity. The geographic coordinates of ADVM 2 in decimal degrees are 41.588545°N, 81.566888°W. ADVM 2 was installed and started recording data on June 8, 2019, and stopped recording on July 23, 2019. The end date for ADVM 2 was earlier than planned due to an equipment issue.
