Current Velocity, Wave Height, and Directional Data in the Lower Laguna Madre near South Padre Island, Texas, July 2022 to January 2023
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the City of South Padre Island, Texas, deployed an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) to collect current velocity, wave height, and directional data in the lower Laguna Madre adjacent to South Padre Island, Texas. From July 19, 2022, through January 9, 2023, these data were collected at a site near South Padre Island (USGS station number 260551097100901) by using an up-looking acoustic doppler current profiler (ADCP) mounted on the bottom of the lower Laguna Madre. Raw data were collected at a frequency of 2 hertz (Hz); reported values were computed as the average of the processed data values for 60-minute intervals. All times are represented in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
