Slocum glider deployed by the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) in the Perth Canyon in February 2014 (Glider090_PC14)

This dataset represents Slocum glider data collected by Glider090 deployed in the Perth Canyon, during a combined ocean glider deployment in conjunction with the IMOS ocean glider facility, in February - March 2014. The joint deployment aimed to provide field data for validating numerical models in the region including: BLUElink, Sparse Hydrodynamic Ocean Code (SHOC) and Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS).

Slocum glider data from the oceans around Australia have been collected by DSTO on an ongoing basis. The data are obtained from an onboard suite of instruments which currently is a Seabird-SBE41 CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth) only.

The variables in this dataset are water temperature, conductivity and salinity.

本数据集收录的是2014年2月至3月期间，部署于珀斯峡谷（Perth Canyon）的Glider090号斯洛克姆（Slocum）海洋滑翔机采集的数据，此次部署为与IMOS海洋滑翔机设施联合开展的综合性海洋滑翔机科考任务。本次联合部署的目标是获取该海域的现场实测数据，用于验证区域内的数值模式，涵盖BLUElink、稀疏水动力海洋代码（Sparse Hydrodynamic Ocean Code, SHOC）以及区域海洋建模系统（Regional Ocean Modelling System, ROMS）。
澳大利亚周边海域的斯洛克姆海洋滑翔机数据长期由DSTO持续采集。本次观测所搭载的成套仪器仅包含Seabird-SBE41型温盐深仪（Conductivity, Temperature, Depth, CTD）。
本数据集包含的变量为海水温度、电导率与盐度。
