Upper Tamar Tidal Height Data

Two OneTemp HOBO pressure data loggers were installed at the Seaport Marina in central Launceston in June 2014 by Dr Ian Kidd, measuring water depth at 1-hr intervals as well as water temperature. Depth is calculated from temperature, total pressure, and barometric pressure, based on fresh water density. The height of the gauge relative to AHD was measured 23 March 2018 by Launceston City Council surveyor Leigh Cornwell, and a correction applied to the data to give water level in metres AHD. The gauge was installed for the purpose of Dr Kidd's PhD research into sediment transport processes in the upper Tamar, and remains open with data collected monthly by Karen Palmer (IMAS honours student). Both projects were supervised by Dr Andrew Fischer.

2014年6月，伊恩·基德博士（Dr Ian Kidd）于朗塞斯顿市中心海港游艇码头（Seaport Marina）安装了两台OneTemp HOBO型压力数据记录仪，以1小时间隔同步采集水深与水温数据。水深数据基于淡水密度，通过温度、总压力与大气压力计算得到。2018年3月23日，朗塞斯顿市议会测量员利·康韦尔（Leigh Cornwell）测量了该记录仪相对于澳大利亚高程基准（Australian Height Datum, AHD）的高度，并对原始数据进行校正，最终得到以澳大利亚高程基准米数为单位的水位数据。该记录仪的安装初衷是用于基德博士针对塔马尔河上游泥沙输运过程的博士研究，目前仍处于开放共享状态，数据由凯伦·帕尔默（Karen Palmer，IMAS荣誉学生）每月采集更新。上述两项研究均由安德鲁·费舍尔博士（Dr Andrew Fischer）指导。
