Abstract

    In collaboration with the NOAA – Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory and the International Joint Commission, the FEMC has deployed a pair of water depth sensors along the US Rt 2 Hwy Causeway in South Hero, VT. This will be a two-year flood inundation study.

    • Title: 10-min Pressure, Temperature, and Depth from the North and South Sensors
    • Start Date: 2019-05-13
    • Description: This dataset contains the 10-minute min, max, average of pressure (not excluding atmospheric pressure), temperature and depth from the sensors deployed at the north and south side of the South Hero, VT Rt 2 causeway. This data is a compilation of the data retrieved from the loggers out in the field. The loggers are set to record in 2.5-minute intervals where instantaneous data is recorded and averaged across 10-minute intervals. Depth was calculated by referencing barometric pressure (mbar) from a meteorological station at Colchester Reef ran by the FEMC. The meteorological station is directly 6.21 miles from the depth sensors.

    • Purpose: Track water depth trends on the north and south side of the Rt. 2 causeway.
