Temperature data. Contains matlab .mat files and txt files containing exported vectors and arrays from the .mat file.

This file bundle contains subfolders named by deployment ID (transectID+target_depth). Each folder contains a file ending with _Info.txt which contains deployment information such as start and end time, lat,lon, depth, units.

Within each folder is the .mat file for the deployment containing a structure "DATA"

% example DATA struct
% DATA 1x1 917360 struct
%
% Temp: [3×28651 double]
% Time: [7.3727e+05 7.3727e+05 … ]
% bin_MAB: [3 7 11]

bin_MAB contains the depth in meters of the thermister.

Temp (Units: Celcius) is a matrix with each "m" dimension corresponding to the bin_MAB thermister depth.

Time is a matlab datenum type in time zone Mountain Time (MT).

Deployment Information for transects and moorings.

Columns (parameter) info:
Data_Type, Data type collected (e.g. MiniDOT,CTD)
Deployment_ID, Deployment identifier. Prefix letters represent a cross-shore transect line and the 2 numerals represent the approximate target depth of a mooring along that line.
Transect_ID, There were 4 transects (LG,PP, MP, BB).
Target_Depth, Moorings targed deployment depth along transect. Targeted at 15, 20, and 25m on each transect.
Start_Date,Start Date local time zone (MT) in format "%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S"
End_Date, End Date local time zone (MT) in format "%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S"
Time_Zone, Timezone (MT, mountain time) used for Start_Date and End_Date
ISO_DateTime_UTC_Start, Start Date time zone UTC in ISO 8601 format "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ"
Latitude, latitude in decimal degrees
Longitude, longitude in decimal degrees
Units,units used for the data type
Depth, notes "Bottom(seafloor) or no value"
