IMOS SOOP Sea Surface Temperature data collected on the Merchant Vessel Fantasea Wonder (Whitsundays Ferry)

This dataset contains Sea Surface Temperature (SST) underway observations collected on trips of the Merchant Vessel Fantasea Wonder (callsign: VJQ7467) between Shute Harbour and Hardy Reef.Data available from the vessel are skin and bulk SST from two types of sensors.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. Observed data are retrieved from the vessel once a day around 6pm and quality controlled at the Bureau of Meteorology. A daily file of 1-minute averages of the observations is generated around 0900 UTC and provided to eMII.

本数据集收录了商船“梦幻奇迹号”（Fantasea Wonder，呼号：VJQ7467）在舒特港与哈迪礁之间航次中采集的航行中海表温度（Sea Surface Temperature, SST）实测数据。该船搭载的两类传感器可采集表皮海表温度与体相海表温度两类数据。“志愿观测船海表温度观测增强计划”（Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity - Sea Surface Temperature, SOOP-SST）旨在为澳大利亚海域内的志愿观测船（Ships of Opportunity, SOOP）与科研船舶提供24小时内的近实时海表温度数据。观测数据每日约于当地18时从船舶取回，并由澳大利亚气象局（Bureau of Meteorology）开展质量控制工作。每日约于协调世界时（UTC）09:00生成观测数据的1分钟平均值文件，并提交至eMII。
