abstract: The oceanographic community routinely collects time-series data of water current velocity of the marine environment. Such data are essential for establishing baseline characteristics of marine and estuarine ecosystems. This current velocity data from upward looking 600 kHz Acoustic Doppler Wave and Current Profiler (AWAC) is from small coastal ocean observing system 25 kilometers southwest of the mouth of Mobile Bay, Alabama (30.0902 N 88.2116 W), that the Dauphin Island Sea Lab has been operating since 2004. The site is in approximately 20 m of water. These data were collected from late summer 2020 to late spring 2021.
purpose: The objective of this ongoing research is to monitor the physical structure of the coastal ocean. This data is a subset of the regularly maintained FOCAL mooring. The site is the longest running time series of water column data in the Mississippi Bight and is an important asset for assessing long-term changes in the physical state of the region. Hydrographic and current velocity data from this site have been used in multiple physical and interdisciplinary studies of circulation, hydrography, and the biophysical interactions associated with the inner shelf of the Northern Gulf of Mexico. The DISL mooring, located at 30°05.410'N, 88°12.694'W, 25 km southwest of Mobile Bay, Alabama. The site is in ~ 20 m of water.
