Abstract

From 2010 to 2015, box core grabs were collected at permanent stations around the Pacific Marine Energy Center - North Energy Test Site (PMEC-NETS) off Newport, Oregon. At each box core station a conductivity, temperature, depth (CTD) cast was conducted. These data include the CTD from the bottom of the cast, sediment grain size analysis, total organic carbon and nitrogen analysis (for the first 3 years only) and macrofaunal organism abundances as retained on a 1 mm mesh sieve. From 2012 to 2015, additional box core grabs were collected around two of the anchors deployed at PMEC-NETS to assess potential changes to sediment conditions and/or organism abundances. From 2013 to 2015, box core samples also were collected in and around the South Energy Test Site (PMEC-SETS). The CTD, grain size, and organism abundances are included. Additionally from 2010 to 2015 beam trawls were conducted at 9 stations (a subset of the box core stations) around PMEC-NETS and CTD casts were conducted before the start of each trawl. Again the CTD data from the bottom of the cast are included. Organism data are fish densities based on the estimated number of meters covered by the trawl. No trawls were conducted atmore » PMEC-SETS.« less

Raw Data from 2014-2015 TRIAXYS Buoy at Pacific Marine Energy Center - South Energy Test Site, OR

Dataset Pittman, Randall

From November 2014 through December 2015 a TRIAXYS wave buoy was deployed in the Pacific Marine Energy Center - South Energy Test Site. This submission includes all the preprocessed data extracted from the binary TRIAXYS recordings. There was no data for February, March, or April, as the buoy was offline for that duration.

TRIAXYS data from the NNMREC-SETS, for Nov. 2014 - Jan. 2015, and May 2015 - Dec. 2015. The data consists of: Date, Time, significant wave height (1 hour average), significant wave period (1 hour average).
Pacific Marine Energy Center Laser Doppler Velocimetry Commissioning

Dataset Williams, Owen

First commissioning data for the new laser doppler velocimetry (LDV) system that will be used at the Tyler Flume at the University of Washington. The LDV system can measure three components of velocity at a point. For this dataset the three components were operated in non-coincident mode and data were acquired at the center of the empty facility. Comparisons of freestream turbulence were made with a Vectrino slightly upstream of the LDV measurement location.
