The dataset compiles water current velocities and direction measured by a platform-based upward looking Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler. Data was acquired in July/August 2015 during the Yukon Coast 2015 expedition to the Herschel Island – Qikiqtaruk coastal observatory, conducted by the Alfred Weg...
