This dataset contains the Underway (UWY) data collected on Linnaeus voyage LI2015_V11. The voyage took place on the 7 May 2015 from Hillarys Boat Harbour (WA) to Rottnest Island and back to Hillarys (WA) on the 7 May 2015. Voyage Objectives: Servicing the Rottnest Island National Reference Station. There were no CTD deployments undertaken during the voyage. Fluorometer sensor data were not collected on this voyage due to sensor fouling from the previous voyage. Water depth data and TSG data were not collected on this voyage. Data are stored at 1 second intervals (NetCDF format) and both 10 second 5 minute intervals (.csv format), including a 10 second PDR (Precision depth recorder) file in .csv format. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the data processing report for this voyage.
DEPRECATED: This dataset has been superseded by GBR1_H2p0_B3p2_Cfur_Dnrt Results from an early version of the 1km-resolution shelf-scale biogeochemical model of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR1). This version of the model was forced by version 1.85 of the eReefs GBR 1 km resolution hydrodynamic model, and made several improvements to the v926 (B1p0) model for: more accurate optical calculations; Normanby – particulate and dissolved loads corrected; Sediment tracer “Dust” added; Oxygen mass conservation part of diagnostics. This model configuration and associated results dataset may also be referred to as "GBR4_H1p71_B1p9_Cfur_Dnrt" according to the eReefs simulation naming protocol, but that protocol was not codified until after this dataset was superseeded, so it is usually referred to by the v924 identifier.
This dataset has been superseded by GBR4_H2p0_B3p1_Cq3b_Dhnd (2010-12 to 2019-04), and it was removed from the NCI fx3 project and THREDDS server in April 2024. An archive copy has been retained by the custodians, and access can be arranged on request. 4km-resolution Biogeochemical model version 3.0, forced by version 2 of the Hydrodynamic model and `best available forcing`¹, deployed as `catchment real time` (6 month lag for SOURCE Catchments model). ¹ best available forcing: ○ 2011-06-30 to 2014-06-30: P2R SOURCE Catchments; ○ 2014-07-01 to 2016-10-30: Empirical SOURCE Catchments; ○ 2016-10-31 onwards: Furnas relationships for wet and dry tropics rivers.
SUPERSEDED: This dataset has been superseeded by GBR4_H2p0_B3p1_Cq3p_Dhnd (2010-12 to 2019-04) and it was removed from the NCI fx3 project and THREDDS server in April 2024. An archive copy has been retained by the custodians, and access can be arranged on request. 4km-resolution Biogeochemical model version 3.0, forced by version 2.0 of the Hydrodynamic model and by SOURCE Catchments with pre-industrial catchment cover, deployed as `catchment real time` (6 month lag for SOURCE Catchments model).
CMAR has conducted a number of stock assessment surveys for finfish, beche-de-mer and trochus on the reefs of Torres Strait. During the course of the suveys, habitat data was also collected albeit at a coarser level of taxonomic resolution. The primary objective of this study was to characterise the reefs of Torres Strait in terms of the biological and habitat data collected during these surveys and to relate the nature of the reefs to the available physical data. Information collated for this study included comprehensive datasets on reef fish, beche-de-mer and seagrass; most of which was identified to species level. Information on corals and algae was based on visual estimates of percentage cover morphotypes. Little data on the other reef biota was collected.
