    This dataset contains oceanographic data collected at a 50m coastal station off Port Hacking, New South Wales (lat. 34 deg. 05 min. S, long. 151 deg. 13 min. E) from December 1942 (collection is ongoing). The station was set up under the CSIRO coastal monitoring programme in the 1940s and is sampled approximately monthly (weekly at some times) for temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and nitrate. Since September 1997 the NSW EPA has collected the samples at this station. The current sampling regime is approximately monthly for 11 or 12 months per year. The data are stored on-line as part of the O&A hydrology archive in Hobart and is available via the O&A Data Trawler. Station identified as Port Hacking 50m station - all data [CS-PHA-ALL]. Historically, additional copies of the data were deposited with the NODC data archive (World Data Centre-A) in the U.S.A., and details of relevant data files can be viewed via their website by requesting the file inventory for this coastal station which is NODC platform code "09E5". Station details, plus printed versions of the data, have been published in CSIRO's "Oceanographical Station List" series.

    The O&A Marine Plankton Collection comprises of historical zooplankton samples collected between 1940 - 1996. The collection is housed at the EcoSciences Precinct, Dutton Park, QLD. The collection includes: (1) Phytoplankton and zooplankton samples collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) Australian Continuous Plankton Recorder survey (AusCPR) (2) Zooplankton samples from the IMOS National Reference Stations program. (3) Detailed information regarding the plankton collection held at Dutton Park was added in August 2014 (refer to: Plankton_Historic_samples_ sorted_ by_AF_24_06_2014.xlsx). Note that this list is incomplete and is currently only a working list, as such it be updated regularly. Refer to document link below. The collection includes data collected by the following vessels: 1. Diamantina voyages 1959-1963: Indian Ocean, Western Australia, GAB, Jjakarta, Sumatra, North West, during 1970-1973 (1973 Freemantle to Hobart). 2. Derwent Hunter 1954-1961: South East Australia (1959-60), NSW coast (Port Stephens-Jervis Bay) and Tasman Sea (1960), Jervis Bay 1961, 3. Courageous (1978) 4. Gascoyne: 1962, SE Indian Ocean Coastal Station Data: 1. Port Hacking stations: 1959, 1968-1971 2. Batemans Bay 1959-1960, 3. Bermagui 1957-1960 4. Jervis Bay 1958-1960 4. Eden NSW: 1956-1960

  • The O&A Hydrology data set includes data collected during the voyages of Australia's Marine National Facility, and of various CSIRO marine research vessels and coastal stations. Hydrology usually consists of salinity and nutrient values obtained by analysing water samples taken at several depths at each station. The subset extracted for MARVL contains data on the continental shelf as defined by the 200 metre depth contour from the 2012 Bathymetric dataset merged (spatial union) with the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Australian Maritime Boundary dataset (http://www.ga.gov.au/metadata-gateway/metadata/record/gcat_63565) available from Geosciences Australia (GA). This subset of the data contains 2,555 Hydrology station records from 78 surveys and includes temperature, pressure and salinity and spans from 1995 to the present. The full data set is held in the O&A Information & Datacentre Data Warehouse, which currently holds over 31,796 Hydrology station records from more than 601 surveys collected since 42. This data includes temperature, pressure and salinity, and may also include any or all of nitrate, nitrite, oxygen, phosphate, silicate and ammonia. Individual metadata records have been created for each research voyage.

  • The CMAR Hydrology data set includes data collected since 1942 during the voyages of Australia's Marine National Facility, and of various CSIRO marine research vessels and coastal stations. Hydrology data usually consists of salinity and nutrient values obtained by analysing water samples taken at several depths at each station. The data may include temperature for some depths, nutrients may include any or all of ammonia, nitrite, phosphate, nitrate, silicate, oxygen. Individual metadata records have been created for each research voyage. The data is held in the CMAR Data Warehouse, which currently holds over 45,000 Hydrology station records from more than 500 voyages.
