Lena River ADCP Transects
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.229

Summary
This data set consists of Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) transect
stream sampling of the Lena River taken from the Moskovskii-11 hydrographic
survey vessel. A vessel-mounted 1200-kHz RDI Workhorse Sentinel ADCP was used
to collect the data from a hydrographic launch deployed from the Moskovski-11
River Vessel. The data were recorded using WinRiver software. This software is
available for download from Teledyne RD Instruments (link below) to read the
raw binary data files. A list of cruises with dates and lat/lons is included
in the cruises.txt file. These data are part of a larger examination of the
effects of anthropogenic activity and global warming on freshwater and organic
carbon input to the Arctic Ocean from the Lena River for the last 50-150
years, under National Science Foundation (NSF) award #0229737.
