Huon Estuary Study 1996/1998 - Database

This record references the database of the final data from the Huon Estuary Study. The data from the project's access database has been transfered into an oracle database which is available on-line to project members. The access database tables have also been exported to text files for archiving to cdrom (held in CMR Data Centre-May 2004.) Data Dictionary files have also been stored on cdrom along with technical reports which describe the data modelling undertaken for the project. The database contains ammonia, arsenic, ctd header, dissolved oxygen, mercury, nutrient, organic matter, pigment, salinity, sediment, suspended solids, taxon counts and dominance data in their final processed form. Data in the database was collected at 61 stations on a seasonal regime (HES Surveys) Weekly/fortnightly (CM Surveys)at 5 of those stations. A sediment survey in May 1997 (SED1) and a Contaminants Survey in August/September 1998 (HES10A) were also carried out. The study was undertaken over the period 1996-1998. Refer to the other Huon Estuary Study metadata records to explore datasets which were not loaded into the database such as the ctd, snapshot and moored instrument data.

Explanation

As the HES1 survey was a pilot the sampling sites were different from those in subsequent surveys. Many collected parameters were not analysed for this survey. <br>

There is no Dissolved Organic Carbon for surveys after HES5.<br>

There is no ammonia data for HES 2,3 and 6.<br> Spectral absorption data is scheduled for reprocessing and will be loaded into the database when it becomes available

Resource lineage

Statement: Data was sourced from the Huon Estuary Study Surveys as described elsewhere in this record. A METHOD table is included which lists the methods used and these are linked via method fields to the various parameters within their own data tables. QC Flags were assigned to most parameters, the flags are described within the QUALITY_FLAGS table. The database contains the processed-final data, there are metadata records for the individual parameters in the database and these records should be read inconjunction with this record.Data will be linked to this record in the future (2016-06-20).
