Kwajalein Island, Marshall Islands, wave and water level data, 2013-2015
Time series data of water surface elevation and wave height were acquired at ten locations for 518 days (in three separate deployments) off the south coast of Kwajalein Island, Marshall Islands, in support of a study on the coastal circulation patterns and the transformation of surface waves over the coral reefs. The relative placement of sensors on the reefs were as follows:
KWA13W1 and KWA13E1 – fore reef
KWA13W2 and KWA13E2 – outer reef flat
KWA13W1 and KWA13E1 – middle reef flat
KWA13W1 and KWA13E1 – inner reef flat
