Summary

Field measurements of flow velocity and discharge were acquired from the Middle Channel of the St. Clair River delta, Michigan, May 2-4, 2022. The velocity and discharge measurements included in this data release were obtained using a SonTek M9 acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) deployed from a boat with an outboard motor. River Surveyor Live software version 4.1. was used to acquire and store the ADCP files. The ADCP data were collected along 8 transects spanning the width of the Middle Channel; two passes across the channel were made at each transect. This data release provides text files derived from the raw ADCP data files using the Velocity Mapping Toolbox (VMT) software version 4.09. Text files with projected spatial coordinates, [...]
