Hydrodynamic experiments were conducted on reference and restored oyster reefs in Mosquito Lagoon, Florida (USA) between June and November 2018. Measurements were collected on intact, degraded, and restored (restoration age: 6month, 2years, 4years) oyster reefs (Crassostrea virginica) to investigate differences in flow and turbulence characteristics related to restoration age. The dataset presented herein includes hydrodynamic observations (timeseries) from experiments conducted on five different oyster reefs (Reference, R-2017, R-2016, R-2014, Degraded), with measurements that include: (1) forcing characteristics (wave heights, water depths, wind speeds, channel velocities), (2) reef characteristics (oyster densities, solid volume fractions), and (3) near-bed flow and turbulence observations (flow speeds, turbulent energy, turbulent kinetic energy dissipation, shear production) from within and above the oyster canopy on sample reefs. Data are presented as timeseries (column vectors) in nine .txt files, with one file for each experiment.
