The measurement campaign was designed to record a complete annual cycle to support the data requirements for zonal characterisation, hydrodynamic modelling and physical processes studies as well as informing the design criteria for turbines and meteorological masts. Data types consisted of: • Water levels • Currents • Waves • Suspended sediment concentration • Temperature • Directional wave statistics. Both the raw and processed datasets are provided. Purpose: To monitor the hydrodynamic processes within the proposed Round 3 Irish Sea Offshore Wind Farm Development Zone and also to support the data requirements for zonal characterisation, hydrodynamic modelling and physical processes studies, as well as informing the design criteria for turbines and meteorological masts. completed Centrica Energy Renewable Investments (CERI) GIS and Data Manager Millstream East, First Floor Windsor SL4 5GD United Kingdom CERI@centrica.com custodian Fugro EMU Limited 1 Mill Court, The Sawmills Durley Southampton SO32 2EJ United Kingdom marketing@fugroemu.com http://www.fugroemu.com originator unknown csv .rdt unknown .wpr unknown .bin unknown .txt unknown .pdf unknown Horizontal velocity of the water column (currents) SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Wave direction SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Wave height and period statistics SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Temperature of the water column SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Concentration of suspended particulate material in the water column SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Salinity of the water column SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary 2019-07-26 revision 113 Acoustic doppler current profile MEDIN Data Guidelines 2020-01-15 revision 6 Zone search area The Crown Estate Renewable Energy Development Areas 2012-05-15 revision 1 Consenting The Crown Estate Renewable Energy Development Phases 2012-05-15 revision 1 Marine Environmental Data and Information Network Marine Environmental Data and Information Network otherRestrictions otherRestrictions Distribution by Celtic Array Limited (CA ) on a case by case basis Distribution by Celtic Array Limited (CA ) on a case by case basis eng oceans SeaDataNet vertical extent keywords 2010-01-01 revision water_column Charting Progress 2 Sea Areas 2009-06-18 creation Irish Sea ICES Rectangles 2009-05-01 creation 36E5 International Hydrographic Bureau, Limits of Oceans and Seas 1954-01-01 creation Irish Sea and St. George's Channel -5.0537 -3.6694 53.4913 53.9755 2010-10 2012-10 series The measurement campaign was designed to record a complete annual cycle to support the data requirements for zonal characterisation, hydrodynamic modelling and physical processes studies as well as informing the design criteria for turbines and meteorological masts. Data types consisted of: • Water levels • Currents • Waves • Suspended sediment concentration • Temperature • Directional wave statistics At the commencement of the project, the deployed equipment comprised of two seabed mounted Acoustic Wave and Current (AWAC) profilers and two Directional Waverider Buoys (DWR). The AWAC profilers were deployed in bespoke seabed frames that are designed to be low profile, trawl resistant and to keep the instruments clear of the seabed. The Nortek AWAC profilers recorded current profiles, tidal heights, directional wave data and acoustic backscatter (ABS) profiles. In addition, the frames were equipped with environmental sensors fitted with optical backscatter (OBS) and temperature sensors. The suspended sediment data from the ABS and OBS was evaluated in combination with water samples collected on site. The frames were recovered and redeployed at new locations on a rolling programme. The two DWRs continually collected data on wave height, period and direction; these data were transmitted to shore via satellite and additionally, were downloaded at regular intervals. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/details/2644/summary A link to the web service or dataset. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk A link to the general host site.
