eReefs_CapeYork_2024.1 Voyage dataset: Water quality and habitat mapping to support local partnerships and assess cyclone impacts in southeast Cape York

Archive of oceanographic and survey data collected during the eReefs_CapeYork_2024.1 Voyage. This voyage focused on a variety of coastal habitats (rivers, estuaries, mangroves, seagrass, reefs) in Far North Queensland following extreme flooding in the region due to the impact of Cyclone Jasper (December 2023). A primary goal of the voyage was evaluation of advanced observation platforms and tools to assess cyclone impacts. Data types include biogeochemical, hydrodynamic and survey/mapping data collected via a range of experimental approaches.

Detailed information on voyage activities and data are provided in the enclosed Voyage Report.

This voyage also served as an opportunity to strengthen local partnerships, and this archive contains relevant datasets and outcomes from these collaborative efforts. Enclosed outputs include mangrove orthoimagery, subtidal seagrass surveys and a Seagrass Monitoring Plan that was jointly developed by Cape York Water Partnership, Juunjuwarra Rangers and CSIRO.
