IMOS - Deep Water Moorings - Temperature and salinity time-series

Sea Surface SalinitySea Surface TemperatureHard coral cover and composition

The Deep Water Moorings Facility (formerly known as the Australian Bluewater Observing System) provides the coordination of national efforts in the sustained observation of open ocean properties with particular emphasis on observations important to climate and carbon cycle studies. This collection contains time-series observations of temperature and salinity from moorings deployed by the Deep Water Moorings' Air-Sea Flux Stations (ASFS) and Deepwater Arrays (DA) sub-facilities. The primary parameters are temperature, pressure (when available) and depth of the instrument. A subset of this collection also includes conductivity and salinity. The observations were made using a range of temperature loggers, conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) instruments, and temperature sensors on acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs).
