Raw TSG data from the St Helena Bay Monitoring Line (SHBML) on the Algoa Voyage 193, January 2013

This is raw Thermosalinograph (TSG) data from the St Helena Bay Monitoring Line January 2013 cruise (now under the Integrated Ecosystem Programme: Southern Benguela). The St Helena Bay Monitoring Line was initiated as a BENEFIT-driven project on "shipboard monitoring" which linked with similar lines run in Namibia and Angola. The aims are to obtain seasonal and interannual information on the hydrology and productivity of the area. Data on harmful algal blooms, low oxygen water and intrusions of Agulhas Bank water along the west coast will also be collected. A long-term, multi-decadel time-series (from 1951 onward) of information already exists for this important region and has continued in the form of the IEP:SB to detect long-term changes in the hydrology and the plankton, which are important for the detection of regime shifts.

此为2013年1月圣赫勒拿湾监测线路的原始Thermosalinograph（TSG）数据，该线路现隶属于综合生态系统计划：南本格拉区域。圣赫勒拿湾监测线路起源于由BENEFIT项目驱动的“船载监测”项目，该项目与纳米比亚和安哥拉运行的类似线路相连接。其目标在于获取该区域的水文和生产力季节性及年际变化信息。同时，还将收集有关有害藻华、低氧水体以及阿古拉斯银行水体沿西海岸入侵的数据。对于这一重要区域，已存在一个长期的多十年时间序列（自1951年起）的信息，该信息以综合生态系统计划：南本格拉的形式持续更新，旨在检测水文和浮游生物的长期变化，这些变化对于检测系统转变至关重要。
