The data includes pressure, sea pressure, and depth information of surface elevation. Field measurements have been collected from September 8th, 18:00, to September 15th, 18:00, for a total of 7 days in 2022 (China Standard Time, UTC+8). The study area is situated in Chongming Island, Shanghai. This region serves as a typical estuarine wetland in the Yangtze River Estuary. We set three observation points (121°56'12.988″E, 31°27'20.69''N; 121°56'2.5″E, 31°27'32.15''N; 121°56'.760″E, 31°27'33.95''N). During the observation period, from September 12th, 18:00, to September 15th, 18:00 2022, the hydrodynamics at the measuring points were affected by Typhoon Muifa. Chongming Island assumes a paramount role in safeguarding the ecological and environmental stability of the Yangtze River Delta region. Nevertheless, the island faces vulnerabilities, particularly in the face of natural disasters such as typhoon-induced storm surges during the summer season. A comprehensive examination of the typhoon events on the wave evolution within coastal wetlands holds substantial relevance. The implications of this research extend beyond localized defence strategies, with broader implications for the domain of coastal science and resilience, as it contributes to our understanding of the complex interplay between natural forces and coastal ecosystems.
