Coral Creek (Hinchinbrook Island) Automated Marine Weather And Oceanographic Station

This data contains historical weather data from Coral Creek (Hinchinbrook Island), covering the period 16-10-1980 to 30-7-1985.These data were collected initially using tapes which were regularly exchanged and later by telemetery which sent binary data daily to a computer controlled base station. Data were verified by comparing three sets of the same data, received over three days. The base station passed data to the central computing facility at AIMS for processing.Data recorded: Wind direction (0-360°); Wind speed (km/hr); Air temperature (0-40°C); Barometric pressure (mB); Solar radiation (µE/sec/M2, PAR).Other variables:Time of day (e.g. 21:53:54); Day of year (e.g.118); Year (e.g. 86). These data were collected to support scientific research at AIMS. Data are made available on request to other researchers and to the public. Information about the sensors used and accuracy are in the metadata section on data quality.

本数据集包含取自珊瑚溪（辛钦布鲁克岛，Coral Creek (Hinchinbrook Island)）的历史气象观测数据，时间跨度为1980年10月16日至1985年7月30日。数据采集初期采用磁带存储并定期交换的方式，后续改用遥测技术，每日将二进制数据传输至计算机控制的基站。通过比对三天内接收的三套重复数据完成数据核验。基站将数据传输至澳大利亚海洋科学研究所（AIMS）的中央计算设施进行处理。本次采集记录的气象参数包括：风向（0°~360°）、风速（千米/小时）、气温（0℃~40℃）、气压（毫巴，mB）、太阳辐射（µE/sec/M²，光合有效辐射（PAR））。此外还记录了以下辅助变量：当日时刻（例如21:53:54）、年积日（例如第118天）、年份（例如86）。本数据集的采集旨在支撑澳大利亚海洋科学研究所（AIMS）的科学研究工作。现可应其他研究人员及公众的申请提供该数据集。关于所用传感器及数据精度的相关信息，请参阅数据质量元数据章节。
