Data for: Strong bottom currents in large, deep Lake Geneva generated by higher vertical-mode Poincaré waves

<p>Combining entire summer season current and temperature observations and 3D numerical modeling, we demonstrate that previously undetected vertical mode-two and vertical mode-three Poincar&eacute; waves in 309-meter deep Lake Geneva (Switzerland/France) generate strong bottom-boundary layer currents at 300-m depth. The data include measurements from moored Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs), vertical thermistor lines, and the corresponding 3D modeling results. The three-dimensional model used in this study is based on the MIT General Circulation Model (MITgcm, <a href="http://mitgcm.org/">http://mitgcm.org/</a>, <a href="https://doi.org/10.1029/96JC02775">https://doi.org/10.1029/96JC02775</a>).
