Basic Sampling Interval

"Basic Sample Interval" means the time interval at which the data were collected, thus the files served here have different time bases. Some files will contain data sampled every 5 minutes, while others contain data sampled every 60 minutes. The basic sample interval varies by instrument and deployment. The basic sample interval is listed in each file's global attributes as "DELTA_T" (in seconds). In the table, positive Latitude or Longitude indicates North and East.

Wave height, direction and period data from Cape Cod Bay during this experiment are available from the
Coastal Data Information Program website, station ID 221.

* The sensors deployed on the beach are denoted by * and have surveyed elevations. The convention is Z positive up relative to NAVD88. Submerged platforms (1081, 1093) and the Hobo (*hwl*) sensors follow the convention of Z positive down for depths.
