GBRELR: Elusive Reef Slope Mooring component of the GBR Mooring Array

GBRELR: Elusive Reef Slope Mooring component of the GBR Mooring Array
Southern GBR - Swains MooringsThe outer mooring is in deep water eastward of the main reef complex near Elusive Reef (GBRELR), the inner one is located in the Capricorn Channel (GBRCCH) where water that has travelled south through the GBR lagoon exits toward the southeast and has complex interactions with intrusions associated with the Capricorn Eddy, that is a recirculation of the East Australian Current.
The Mooring array is part of the GBROOS or Great Barrier Reef Ocean Observing System project which in turn is part of the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System or IMOS.

GBRELR：大堡礁（Great Barrier Reef, GBR）锚定阵列之难抵礁斜坡锚泊组件。南大堡礁——斯温斯锚泊站点：外侧锚泊站位于主礁群东侧深水区，毗邻难抵礁（Elusive Reef，GBRELR）；内侧锚泊站设于摩羯海峡（Capricorn Channel，GBRCCH），该区域内，流经大堡礁潟湖南下的水体向东南方向外泄，并与摩羯涡（Capricorn Eddy，即东澳洋流的再循环环流）相关的入侵水团产生复杂相互作用。本锚定阵列隶属于大堡礁海洋观测系统（Great Barrier Reef Ocean Observing System, GBROOS）项目，而该项目又隶属于澳大利亚综合海洋观测系统（Integrated Marine Observing System, IMOS）。
