Abstract. Underwater pressure sensors were deployed at various locations of the nearshore (8−23 m depth) Hornsund fjord, Svalbard between July 2013 and February 2021. Raw pressure measurements at 1 Hz were used to derive mean water levels, wave spectra and bulk wave parameters for 1024 s bursts at hourly intervals. The procedure included subtracting atmospheric pressure, depth calculation, Fast Fourier Transform, correction for the decrease of the wave orbital motion with depth and adding a high-frequency tail. The dataset adds to the sparse in situ measurements of wind waves and water levels in the Arctic, and can be used e.g. for analysing seasonal wind wave conditions and inter-annual trends, and calibrating/validating wave models.
