| License | Internal Fisheries data - need to be contacted for access. Sampling is very irregular in time and there are many datagaps; many salinity samples are missing or unprocessed. Various formats over the years. The original data are recorded manually onto logsheets in the field, and are periodically copied across into a spreadsheet.
