Level 1 data refers to the full resolution data in physical units, e.g. the regularly sampled time series of converted shear probe data. If needed, a transfer function for shear is given. Below, a table with parameters included in the level 1 data set is compiled. The data are stored as a NetCDF group with the name "L1_converted".

In the standard names, "sea_water" can be replaced with "water" if working in freshwater environments. This is specified in some entries below but not all.


Dimensions

TIME length of the record from turbulence (fast) data channels
