EcoRRAP oceanographic logger data

EcoRRAP oceanographic logger data. Data collected to provide explanatory information for ecological datasets, and for model parameterisation. At the main reef per cluster (e.g. Masig Island, Lizard Island, Moore Reef, Pelorus Island, Davies Reef, Keppel Islands, Heron Island) an array of loggers were deployed at one of the front deep sites. These loggers measured salinity, temperature, depth, light and currents (current profiles and surface waves) and were deployed for 12 months at a time. A wave buoy was also deployed adjacent to the instrument array. Temperature sensors and current meters were further deployed at many other monitoring sites. Deployment details are described in the logger deployment database.
