Water Quality and Sedimentation Data of the Coastal Intensive Site Network (CISNet) Long-Term Monitoring Sites in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii from 1998 to 2001 (NCEI Accession 0001473)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 01:26 AM | Dataset Last Updated: January 03, 2022 at 12:00 AM
A long term project to monitor water quality and sediment processes in Kaneohe Bay was initiated in November 1998 and continued through July 2001. Four primary sites in the bay were chosen which had been used in historical water quality studies. Additional sites were located in feeder streams within a mile of the bay and just offshore in the open ocean. This dataset includes measurements of water temperature, salinity, total suspended solids (TSS), light penetration, secchi depth, depth extinction coefficient, chlorophyll-a, zooplankton, nutrients, dissolved particulate C and N, dome efflux rates, O2 production, sedimentation, turbidity, current speed and direction, and other parameters.
