The processing of ADCP data to compute turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rates (
) using the structure function technique can be divided into the following steps. The sub-steps include recommendations for deploying the ADCP, collecting, quality-controlling and processing the data to arrive at the
estimates. No actual code is provided, rather these are the essential steps to be taken or implemented with your preferred software for pulse-pulse coherent ADCP data. Quality control measures are implemented at two stages: QA1 and QA2.

- Deploy ADCP appropriately to collect reliable turbulence data
- Apply quality-control on velocity time series data (QA1)
- Compute structure functions and dissipation estimates
- Apply quality-control on dissipation rates (QA2)
