____Data for Bathymetric Survey and Sedimentation Analysis of Lago Carite, Puerto Rico, January 2018
This dataset is a polygon shapefile containing the reservoir shoreline for the sedimentation survey of Lago Carite, Puerto Rico.This polygon was used to constraint the extent of the Triangulated irregular network (TIN) model and ultimately, to generate contours from bathymetric data collected during the period January 23 - January 30, 2018 by the Puerto Rico office of the Caribbean-Florida Water Science Center of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The goals of the survey were to determine reservoir infill sedimentation rates, generate a bathymetric map of the reservoir, and create a stage-volume relation. Field techniques used during the survey were similar to those outlined by Soler-López and Carrasquillo-Nieves,...
This dataset is a polyline shapefile containing bathymetric contours, at 1-meter intervals, of Lago Carite, Puerto Rico. The contours were generated from bathymetric data collected during a sedimentation survey conducted during the period January 23 - January 30, 2018 by the Puerto Rico office of the Caribbean-Florida Water Science Center of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The goals of the survey were to determine reservoir infill sedimentation rates, generate a bathymetric map of the reservoir, and create a stage-volume relation. Field techniques used during the survey were similar to those outlined by Soler-López and Carrasquillo-Nieves, (2001) and Wilson and Richards (2006).A total of 137 planned transect...
