Oceanographic observations for the Coastal Highway E39 project in Mid-Norway

By laraf |

This is a collection of observations from several moored buoys in the Norwegian archipelago and fjords. The buoys measure wind and waves as well as currents, temperature and salinity at several depths in Halsafjord, Sulafjord and Vartdalsfjord and at an offshore location (winter 2019/2020). Both high-frequency recordings of 0,5 - 2 Hz and 10 - 20 minute mean values are provided. The data collection is co-located with the data collection Meteorological Observations in tall masts for the Coastal Highway E39 project in Mid-Norway ( https://adc.met.no/datasets/10.21343/z9n1-qw63 ). The first buoys were deployed October 2016 and the campaign will continue until at least 2024. The dataset is publicly available.
