Abstract
The dataset comprises a 45-year-long directional wave time series recorded at the Acqua Alta Oceanographic research Tower (AAOT) since 1979. The AAOT is located in the Northern Adriatic Sea and it is managed by the Institute of Marine Sciences of the National Research Council of Italy (CNR-ISMAR). The extent of the time series enables the description of the wave climate in the North Adriatic region and the identification of trends and links with large-scale climate patterns from a single and permanent observational source. Different wave gauges have been used since the start of the measurements, progressively upgraded and repositioned during maintenance operations. The recent addition of more precise instruments and the availability of the related raw dataset allowed for a re-evaluation of the previously published data, while extending the timeseries in time. This has enabled the creation of a substantially improved, yet homogeneous, measured dataset, thereby enhancing the reliability of the related long-term scenario analysis.
期刊介绍:
Scientific Data is an open-access journal focused on data, publishing descriptions of research datasets and articles on data sharing across natural sciences, medicine, engineering, and social sciences. Its goal is to enhance the sharing and reuse of scientific data, encourage broader data sharing, and acknowledge those who share their data.
The journal primarily publishes Data Descriptors, which offer detailed descriptions of research datasets, including data collection methods and technical analyses validating data quality. These descriptors aim to facilitate data reuse rather than testing hypotheses or presenting new interpretations, methods, or in-depth analyses.
