IMOS - Ocean Gliders - Slocum glider deployment in New South Wales off Port Stephens (November - December 2008)
OxygenParticulate matterDissolved Organic CarbonSea Surface SalinitySea Surface TemperatureSurface CurrentsPhytoplankton biomass and diversity
The dataset contains temperature, salinity and biological parameters like for example dissolved oxygen and turbidity data measured by a Slocum glider in the region of Port Stephens (New South Wales).
The Ocean Gliders Facility (formerly known as the Australian National Facility for Ocean Gliders (ANFOG)), manages Slocum gliders to be deployed on the continental shelf.
The variables available in this dataset are: Temperature, salinity, conductivity, density, pressure, chromophoric dissolved oxygen matter, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence and backscatter coefficient at 660nm.
