Oceanographic and water-quality measurements collected in Bellingham Bay, Washington, USA, 2019 to 2021
February 17, 2023
Bottom-landing and floating platforms with instrumentation to measure currents, waves, water level, optical turbidity, water temperature, and conductivity were deployed at four locations in Bellingham Bay, Washington, USA. Platforms were deployed during three separate periods: July 30, 2019-November 14, 2019; November 19, 2019-February 5, 2020; and January 22, 2021-April 13, 2021. Additionally, water samples were collected on multiple dates between July 30, 2019 and April 15, 2021, to determine suspended-sediment concentration. These data were collected to support studies of sediment delivery, transport, deposition, and resuspension in this Pacific Northwest estuarine embayment.
