AIMS/CSIRO Great Barrier Reef Current Meter (Mooring) Data 1985

This dataset comprises the current meter data collected from 5 AIMS and 5 CSIRO moorings in the region of the Great Barrier Reef off Townsville (bordering the Coral Sea) during June-November 1985, as part of a study of the Great Barrier Reef undercurrent, and circulation in the Coral Sea. There are 9 moorings and 19 current meters represented in this dataset. Parameters typically recorded in current meter data comprise east-west and north-south velocity components, water temperature, pressure, and salinity at a nominal depth for each current meter. The data have been processed and are archived as part of the holdings of the CMR Data Centre in Hobart.

本数据集收录了1985年6月至11月期间，在毗邻珊瑚海的汤斯维尔外海大堡礁海域采集的海流计（current meter）观测数据，相关观测为大堡礁暗流与珊瑚海环流研究的组成部分，数据源自5个澳大利亚海洋科学研究所（Australian Institute of Marine Science, AIMS）锚系浮标及5个联邦科学与工业研究组织（Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, CSIRO）锚系浮标。本数据集共涉及9个锚系浮标与19台海流计。海流计观测数据的典型记录参数涵盖每台海流计在标称深度下的东西向、南北向流速分量，以及水温、压强与盐度。该数据集已完成处理，作为霍巴特CMR数据中心（CMR Data Centre）的馆藏资料进行归档保存。
