IMOS - Ocean Gliders - Slocum glider deployment in Western Australia off the coast of Kimberley (November - December 2011)

The dataset contains temperature, salinity and biological parameters including dissolved oxygen and turbidity data measured by a Slocum glider off the coast of Kimberley (Western Australia).Slocum glider data from the oceans around Australia have been collected by the Ocean Gliders Facility (formerly known as the Australian National Facility for Ocean Gliders (ANFOG)), since June 2008 and are ongoing. The data are obtained from an onboard suite of instruments which include Seabird-SBE41 CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth), WETLabs BBFL2SLO 3 parameter optical sensor (measuring Chlorophyll-a, CDOM and 700nm Backscatter) and an Aanderaa oxygen optode (measuring concentration of dissolved oxygen in seawater.

本数据集收录了斯洛克姆滑翔机 (Slocum glider) 在澳大利亚西部金伯利沿岸海域采集的温度、盐度数据，以及包含溶解氧与浊度在内的生物参数数据。自2008年6月起，澳大利亚海洋滑翔机设施 (Ocean Gliders Facility，前身为澳大利亚国家海洋滑翔机设施 (Australian National Facility for Ocean Gliders, ANFOG)) 已持续采集澳大利亚周边海域的斯洛克姆滑翔机观测数据，该数据采集工作目前仍在进行中。本次数据集的观测数据来源于滑翔机搭载的成套仪器设备，具体包括Seabird-SBE41 CTD (电导率、温度、深度仪，Conductivity, Temperature, Depth)、WETLabs BBFL2SLO型三参数光学传感器（可测量叶绿素a、有色可溶性有机物 (CDOM) 以及700nm后向散射信号），以及Aanderaa型溶解氧光学传感器（用于测定海水中溶解氧的浓度）。
