IMOS - ACORN - Turquoise Coast HF ocean radar site (Western Australia, Australia) - Real-time sea water velocity

The Turquoise Coast (TURQ) HF ocean radar system covers the area of shelf between Seabird and Jurien Bay and is the logical continuation of major research efforts to understand the role of the Leeuwin Current System (Leeuwin Current, the Leeuwin Undercurrent and Capes Current) in controlling not only the physical system but also its links to both pelagic and benthic ecosystems. In contrast to eastern ocean basins, which are highly productive, Western Australia experiences an oligotrophic environment. The Leeuwin Current is a shallow (

绿松石海岸（Turquoise Coast，TURQ）高频（HF）海洋雷达系统覆盖了海鸟岛与朱里恩湾之间的大陆架海域，该系统是重大科研工作的逻辑延伸，旨在厘清卢因海流系统（Leeuwin Current System，包含卢因海流、卢因潜流与岬角海流）在调控海洋物理过程，以及其与远洋生态系统、底栖生态系统之间关联中的作用。与生产力极高的东大洋盆地不同，西澳大利亚周边海域呈现贫营养环境。卢因海流为浅海（
