Figure 2
Measured time series from Feb. 18 to March 19. Meteorological variables measured by the wave/weather station buoy included (a) atmospheric pressure and temperature; and (b) wind speed and direction (stick diagram plotted according to the oceanographic convention, the upward direction is north). Hydrographic variables by the mooring included (c) salinity and temperature and (d) water depth variability from XR-420; (e) speed and direction of the instantaneous flow from the ADCP at 1 − m intervals (as stick diagram, upward direction is north; and (f) converted suspended sediment concentration (SSC) from the echo intensity of the ADCP at 0.25 m intervals. The red horizontal bars at the top of (a,b,c) indicate periods of southerly winds. The blue horizontal bars at the top of (d,d,e,f) indicate periods of spring tide.
