IMOS-SOOP-Air Sea Flux : Meteorological and SST Observations collected on the Research Vessel Southern Surveyor

This dataset contains environmental observations as well as ship parameters (such as speed and direction).

Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity (SOOP)- Air Sea Flux (ASF) R.V. Southern Surveyor collects underway meteorological and oceanographic observations during scientific voyages in the oceans adjacent to Australia.

Data streams are fed into the existing ship data management system, and broadcast via satellite back to Australia 3-hourly. The observations are quality controlled at the Bureau of Meteorology and air-sea fluxes calculated using the COARE Bulk Flux algorithm.

A daily file of 1-minute averages of the observations are generated shortly after 0000UTC and provided to eMII.

The data is contained in NetCDF format files and consists of environmental observations as well as ship parameters (such as speed and direction). Wind is observed with two different sensors, and the relative (observed) and true (relative to fixed earth) wind speed and direction provided. Air temperature and humidity is observed on the port and starboard of the main mast. Short-wave (sunlight) and long-wave (infra-red radiation or heat, from sky and clouds) is observed on the port and starboard side of the monkey island (above the bridge). Precipitation is observed with an optical rain-gauge and traditional siphon gauge from the foremast. Instrument meta-data and QC flags are also contained in the files.

本数据集包含环境观测数据与船舶参数（如航速与航向）。
"机会船舶观测（Ships of Opportunity, SOOP）-海气通量（Air Sea Flux, ASF）"增强测量项目中，"南方调查号"研究船（R.V. Southern Surveyor）在澳大利亚周边海域开展科学考察航行期间，采集航行中的气象与海洋学观测数据。
观测数据流被接入现有船舶数据管理系统，并通过卫星每3小时向澳大利亚回传数据。所有观测数据将在澳大利亚气象局完成质量控制，并采用COARE整体通量算法计算海气通量。
每日协调世界时0000时后不久，系统将生成观测数据的1分钟平均值日文件，并推送至eMII。
本数据集以网络通用数据格式（NetCDF）文件存储，包含环境观测数据与船舶参数（如航速与航向）。风速与风向通过两套不同传感器观测，提供相对（实测）风速风向以及绝对（相对于固定地球参考系）风速风向数据。空气温湿度数据采集于主桅的左舷与右舷位置。短波（太阳光）与长波（来自天空与云层的红外辐射或热量）的观测数据采集于驾驶台顶部瞭望平台的左舷与右舷侧。降水数据通过前桅安装的光学雨量计与传统虹吸式雨量计采集。文件中同时包含仪器元数据与质量控制标记。
