IMOS - National Mooring Network - CTD Profiles

This collection includes conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) profiles obtained at the National Reference Stations (NRS) as part of the water sampling program. The instruments used also measure dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, and turbidity. The collection also includes practical salinity, water density and artificial chlorophyll concentration, as computed from the measured properties. The data are processed in delayed mode, with automated quality control applied. The National Reference Station network is designed to provide baseline information, at timescales relevant to human response, that is required to understand how large-scale, long-term change and variability in the global ocean are affecting the ecosystems of Australia's coastal seas. The stations are operated by the National Mooring Network (formerly known as the Australian National Mooring Network (ANMN)), a facility of the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS).本数据集包含作为水样采集计划组成部分、于国家参考站（NRS）获取的温盐深（conductivity-temperature-depth, CTD）剖面数据。所用观测仪器还可同步测量溶解氧、荧光与浊度。本数据集还涵盖由实测参数计算得到的实用盐度、海水密度及人工叶绿素浓度。所有数据均采用延迟模式处理，并应用了自动化质量控制流程。国家参考站网旨在提供适配人类响应所需时间尺度的基准信息，此类信息是理解全球海洋大范围长期变化与变率如何影响澳大利亚沿岸海域生态系统所必需的。该类参考站由国家锚定观测网运营，该网络前身为澳大利亚国家锚定观测网（ANMN），是综合海洋观测系统（IMOS）下设的设施。
