Title of dataset | Lagoon hydrodynamics of pearl farming atolls in French Polynesia : the case of Apataki Atoll (Tuamotu Archipelago) |
Narrative summary of dataset | Apataki Atoll has been instrumented over a period of 3 months (from April 2022 to late July 2022) separated into 2 Legs. Physical process such as water level, currents ciruclation, water exchanges into passes and "hoa" and water column stratification have been measured to characterized the hydrodynamic functioning of this semi-opened pearl farming atoll. Numerous moorings have been deployed into lagoon, passes, hoa and external reef slope stations with common autonomous oceanographic instruments measuring at high sampling frequency. During the sampling period, one major meteorological event occurred, a distant mega swell hit the South-West Islands of French Polynesia including Apataki on 14th July and has significantly impacted its hydrodynamic. Sampling strategy available on Sextant - (Marine Geographic Information System.)-[https://sextant.ifremer.fr/Donnees/Catalogue#/metadata/e551d586-262e-4071-b881-70d8a1659647] More informations on (ANR MANA project.)-[https://www.coreus.ird.fr/index.php/home-en/home/research/portfolio/ongoing-projects/projet-mana] Important Note: This submission has been initially submitted to SEA scieNtific Open data Edition (SEANOE) publication service and received the recorded DOI. The metadata elements have been further processed (refined) in EMODnet Ingestion Service in order to conform with the Data Submission Service specifications. |
