| Buck Island, U.S. Virgin Islands, wave and water level data, 2015 | Tripods | Time series data of wave height and water surface elevation were acquired for 147 days at four locations off of the north coast and four locations off the south coast of Buck Island, U.S. Virgin Islands, in support of a study on the coastal circulation patterns and the transformation of surface waves over the coral reefs. | Kurt Rosenberger |
