Abstract

This dataset includes data collected using a mobile sensing platform during baseflow and stormflow conditions in the Northwest Field Canal, located in Logan, UT. Data were collected by floating a payload of sensors in a longitudinal transect down the length of the canal and recording latitude, longitude, and several water quality variables, including fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM), observations from custom fluorometers designed for calculating the fluorescence index (FI), dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH, specific conductance, and turbidity. The methods used in collection and processing of these data are described in detail in the methods document included within this resource.

Root Level Folder Content Descriptions

Finalized_Data - This folder contains data files for fully corrected mobile sensing platform runs. Data files in this folder are from the mobile sensing platform and have been fully quality controlled. This includes removal of data from before the run began and after the run ended (QC1), removal of data where the boat was out of water or in low water, affecting all sensors (QC2), conversion of Lat/Lon data to easting/northing UTM (QC2.5), calculated boat distances along the centerline of the canal (QC3), fast and slow data tables combined and turbidity data interpolated (QC3.5), temperature and turbidity correction of FDOM, CDOM, fEM470 and fEM520 sensor values (QC4), and lastly, erroneous data values specific to individual sensors (C6, YSI, turbidity) changed to NaN (QC5). NaN values represent data that were removed during the quality control of the mobile platform data. Use this data for future analyses.

NWFC_MobilePlatform_Methods.docx - This document provides supplementary info for the methods used in operating the mobile sensing platform. 

Supplemental_Data - This folder contains raw mobile platform data and supporting files that were used to quality control the data. See the readme.txt file in the root level of the Supplemental_Data folder for supporting documentation. This data should not need to be used for future analyses, it is recommended that the finalized data provided be used.
