+rotstr1_0610a: The total experiment time was 36 mins. Inflow rate started with 10.97 L/s and then was decreased to 5.75 L/s until it reached a constant level. The water was dirty so no PIV measurements were conducted. Density excess and temperature were 20 kg/m^3^ and 22.7°C, respectively. ADV data was collected at the straight section (Position X1 - 75% down straight section, 58 cm upstream from the end of the straight section) from 15 to 25 min after the flow rate became constant. 7 sets of siphon samples were collected at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 minutes after the start of the experiment, with a duration of 1 minute. Cross stream UVP collected data from 5 to 15 minutes and down-stream UVP collected data from 25 to 35 minutes.
