The USNA long-term scintillation study is a continuing effort to characterize and measure optical turbulence in the near-maritime boundary layer.
The field campaign utilized a ScinTec BLS450 scintillometer to characterize the strength of optical turbulence over a link approximately 3 [m] above the river’s surface between January 1\textsuperscript{st}, 2020, and July 26\textsuperscript{th}, 2023. This field campaign included a range of meteorological and oceanographic measurements from nearby NOAA, National Data Buoy Center (NDBC), and Academy weather stations.
The long-term dataset covers the period between January 1\textsuperscript{st}, 2020 and July 14\textsuperscript{th}, 2022. This data set includes local measurements made with a Davis Vantage Pro2 weather station, as well as water conditions from the NDBC Thomas Point data buoy.
