Hydrological data from the Portoviejo River, Ecuador, 2021-2022
type: Dataset
description: This dataset contains daily measurements of river flow velocity (m/s), river discharge (m3/s), river depth (cm), and river width (m) from the Portoviejo River, Ecuador, from years 2021 and 2022. This dataset was generated as part of the NERC funded project 'Reducing the impacts of plastic waste in the Eastern Pacific Ocean', which aims to "reduce plastic leakage in the Eastern Pacific region, supporting development of a sustainable, circular plastics resource flow and reducing the impacts of plastic pollution on livelihoods and wildlife". This data was collected to monitor the river hydrological conditions alongside collections of anthropogenic litter using the Azure System developed by Ichthion Limited (https://ichthion.com/tecnologia/).
