IMOS SOOP Sea Surface Temperature Data collected on the Merchant Vessel Highland Chief

This dataset contains Sea Surface Temperature (SST) underway observations collected on trips of a merchant vessel (MV Highland Chief - VROB) between south-east of Australia (Melbourne) and Papua New Guinea, including New Zealand, New Caledonia and Solomon Islands.The data have been quality controlled by the Bureau of Meteorology.Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity (SOOP)-Sea Surface Temperature (SST) aims to supply near real-time SST data (within 24 hours) from SOOPs and research vessels in the Australian region.

本数据集收录了商船“高地酋长号”（MV Highland Chief - VROB）于澳大利亚东南部（墨尔本）至巴布亚新几内亚的航行期间采集的海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）走航观测数据，航行范围覆盖新西兰、新喀里多尼亚及所罗门群岛。该数据集已由澳大利亚气象局完成质量控制。船舶机会观测海表温度增强项目（Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity, SOOP）-海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）旨在为澳大利亚海域内的机会观测船与科研船提供24小时内的近实时海表温度数据。
