Description
From 31 Aug 2017 to 26 Oct 2017, the Nearshore Remote Sensing Group from Oregon State University (OSU) operated two coastal marine radar stations and recorded radar image sequences with 6 km radius and ~0.7 Hz sampling rate. OSU operated two radar stations: one at Guadalupe Dunes and one at Purisima Point on the south-central California Coast as part of the 2017 Inner Shelf Experiment. The high-level goals of the Nearshore Remote Sensing Team were 1) to deploy and operate the two coastal radar stations, 2) provide continuous synoptic awareness of surface roughness features by sharing time-averaged radar imagery in near-real-time via a website, and 3) to preserve the marine radar recordings and imagery for future analysis. Data contained herein includes time-averaged imagery from the radar recordings from both radar sites. The data capture the propagation and transformation of internal waves propagating across the inner shelf as well as the frequent and extensive occurrence of rip currents, especially along the beach at Guadalupe Dunes.
