Description:A suite of sensors was placed in 19 meters of water depth at a site offshore of Miami, Florida. These sensors made measurements of suspended sediment concentration, ambient currents, temperature, salinity, and waves. Meteorological data for the time period of the experiment were retrieved from the Fowey Rocks lighthouse station (FWYF1). The received signal strength intensity data from the acoustic Doppler current profilers deployed for this project were processed to provide data in units of volume scattering strength. These scattering strength data were then used to provide a second estimate of the suspended sediment concentrations. During the course of this experiment, several severe storms impacted the area. Suspended sediment concentration estimates are presented for average conditions and for the cases of these severe storms. [doi:10.7289/V5/TR-OAR-AOML-46 (http://dx.doi.org/10.7289/V5/TR-OAR-AOML-46)]
