Time series data were collected during the selected study period (May 1 - July 11, 2018) from various monitoring stations in order to support the ecological and biogeochemical sampling. Within the estuary, the data were primarily derived from YSI 6600 V2 and V4 water quality sondes located at 4 sites in Fowl River, including a site at the mouth (0 km), at Bellingrath Gardens (4.3 km), at an upriver spit (7.3 km) and at the Fowl River bridge (11.3 km). Parameters measured include temperature (degree C), specific conductance (uS/cm), conductivity (uS/cm), salinity (ppt), pressure (psia), pressure at depths of ~0.25 m off the bottom (site water depths ~3-5 m) and velocity (m/s) using ADV and tilt sensors.
