IMOS - Moorings - Hourly time-series product

Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) have moorings across both it's National Mooring Network and Deep Water Moorings facilities. The National Mooring Network facility comprises a series of national reference stations and regional moorings designed to monitor particular oceanographic phenomena in Australian coastal ocean waters. The Deep Water Moorings facility (formerly known as the Australian Bluewater Observing System) provides the coordination of national efforts in the sustained observation of open ocean properties with particular emphasis on observations important to climate and carbon cycle studies, with selected moorings from its Deep Water Arrays sub-facility providing data to this collection.This collection represents the hourly aggregated time-series product, which combines selected variables measured by all the instruments deployed at a site, binning the values into a fixed one-hour interval. Only good-quality measurements (according to the automated quality-control procedures applied by the National Mooring Network) are included. The parameters are: temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll estimates, turbidity, down-welling photosynthetic photon flux (PAR), and current velocity, accompanied by depth and pressure when available. The observations were made using a range of temperature loggers, conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) instruments, water-quality monitors (WQM), acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs), and single-point current meters.

综合海洋观测系统（Integrated Marine Observing System，IMOS）旗下拥有覆盖国家锚定观测网（National Mooring Network）与深水锚定设施（Deep Water Moorings）两大板块的锚定观测站点。国家锚定观测网板块包含一系列国家级参考站与区域锚定观测站，旨在监测澳大利亚近岸海域的特定海洋学现象。深水锚定设施前身为澳大利亚远海观测系统（Australian Bluewater Observing System），负责统筹全国范围内的远洋海洋要素长期观测工作，重点关注与气候及碳循环研究相关的观测数据；其深水阵列子设施的部分选定锚定观测站为本数据集提供观测数据。本数据集为逐小时聚合的时间序列产品，整合了站点部署的所有仪器所测得的选定变量，将观测值按固定的1小时间隔进行分箱处理。仅纳入符合国家锚定观测网所采用的自动化质量控制流程的优质观测数据。观测参数包括：温度、盐度、溶解氧、叶绿素估算值、浊度、下行光合光子通量（PAR）以及流速，若有可用数据则同步提供水深与压强信息。本次观测使用了多类仪器完成，包括温度记录仪、温盐深（Conductivity-Temperature-Depth，CTD）仪、水质监测仪（Water-Quality Monitors，WQM）、声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers，ADCPs）以及单点流速计。
