Data used in "Tidal sandwaves promote oceanic vertical mixing and frontogenesis"

These datasets include turbulence and current velocity profiles, bottom-tracking depth from the shipboard ADCP collected during 24 field campaigns onboard R/V Isana, CMES, Ehime University, in 2012–2019.All data are provided as the MATLAB binary file (*.mat), in which observation time is offered in the MATLAB "datenum" format.
