Water current readings at the 'Red' mooring in the South Central area of Jervis Bay: (Winter) Deployment 2 (12/09/90 to 30/10/90)
No full textMaintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: The mooring held three S4 Interocean Current Meters at various depths: 18.5m (serial no. 05451213), 10.5m (serial no. 05001077) and 6.5m (serial no. 05451211).Statement: The data provided in these datasets includes the eastern and northern tidal components, speed, direction and temperature. The datasets providing the 10 minute sample values also give depth and salinity readings.
The first reading was recorded at 0900 on 11/09/90 and the final recording made at 0910 on 02/11/90.
**Unfortunately one dataset is missing from this collection. The decimated hourly intervals for the meter at 10.5m have not been located and can therefore not be provided through this record**
Parameters / Structure: Time (AEST), date, water depth (m), instrument depth (m), instrument serial numbers, eastern water velocity (cm/s), northern water velocity (cm/s), water temperature (oC), salinity (PSU), sigma-T (no units), record number, average speed (cm/s), average direction (deg T), water depth (m), sampling location (degrees, decimal minutes),<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by The Department of Defence<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by CSIRO Division of Fisheries Research<b>Purpose</b><br/>To determine patterns of water circulation within Jervis Bay, and to understand the processes that drive these currents.A current meter mooring was deployed in the south central section of Jervis Bay between 12/09/90 and 30/10/90. This 'Red' mooring (35.0895 S, 150.735 E) held three S4 Interocean current meters at various depths (18.5m, 10.5m and 6.5m). <br/><br/>Each of these current meters provided two datasets. In the first, the meter integrates the signals over 2 minutes every 10 minutes, providing 10 min sample readings. The second decimated the samples using a running mean to provide hourly intervals. <br/><br/>The data provided in all these datasets includes the eastern and northern tidal components, speed, direction and temperature. The datasets providing the 10 minute sample values also give depth and salinity readings.<br/><br/>**Unfortunately one dataset is missing from this collection.

Temperature - Salinity distributions / CTD data within Jervis Bay and out across the shelf: 1989
No full textMaintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: For each day of sampling three resources are provided: 1) A text document providing details of sampling locations, as well as a CTD summary collected from each of the stations every 4-10 metres down the water column, 2) A map showing the location of each sampling station and, 3) An excel file providing the raw CTD data collected.
It should be noted that the location of stations were originally recorded as distance from Point Perpendicular or Plantation Point on a specified bearing. While processing this data I have used this information to generate lat/long coordinates for each of the stations.
Parameters / Structure: Station name, time (AEST), date, water depth (metres), station coordinates (degrees, seconds, minutes), distance from Plantation Point (km and nm), distance from Pt Perpendicular (km and nm), bearing (T) to either Pt. Perpendicular or Plantation Pt., temperature (oC), salinity (PSU), sigma T (no units). Google Earth image shows the location of sampling stations.Statement: Neil Brown 'Smart' CTD recorder<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by The Department of Defence<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by CSIRO Division of Fisheries Research<b>Purpose</b><br/>To monitor the monthly variability of stratification within Jervis Bay and adjacent shelfThis dataset is a component of the 'Jervis Bay Baseline Studies' project conducted by the Department of Defence, CSIRO and the Australian Defence Force Academy. <br/><br/>Approximately once per month between 1988-1991, temperature-salinity surveys were conducted within Jervis Bay and out across the continental shelf. Measurements were made using a Neil Brown 'Smart' CTD. On each day of sampling, ~10 stations were chosen across the shelf, with the CTD recorder measuring salinity, temperature and sigma-T through the water column.<br/><br/>This record describes CTD data collected in 1989. For each day of sampling three resources are provided: 1) A text document providing details of sampling locations, as well as a CTD summary collected from each of the stations every 4-10 metres down the water column, 2) A map showing the location of each sampling station and, 3) An excel file providing the raw CTD data collected.<br/><br/>This is one of nine child records that relate to the parent, 13391430-2ae8-11dd-a735-00188b4c0af8.

Wind statistics at Governor Head Meteorological Station, Jervis Bay in August 1989
No full textMaintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: A Steedman EMS-16 meteorological station housing an R.M. Young anemometer and YSI barometer was set up near Governor Head. The site is several hundred metres inland of 50m high cliffs and is 63m above sea-level. The anemometer is a further 5m above the ground level.Statement: These datasets provide wind statistics for August 1989. Individual measurements have been converted so that trends of wind speed and direction can be seen for the time period in question.
Any discrepancy between the sum of items in rows or columns, and the given sum is due to rounding error only.
Parameters: Date, time (AEST), wind direction (deg T), percentage (%) of time the wind spent blowing at a particular strength, wind speed (knots), percentage of time per directional segment (%), percentage of time per wind speed interval (%), and cumulative percentage (%).<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by The Department of Defence<b>Credit</b><br/>Funded by CSIRO Division of Fisheries Research<b>Purpose</b><br/>To understand the processes that drive water circulation within Jervis Bay, and the exchange processes that occur between the bay and shelf waters.This dataset is a component of the 'Jervis Bay Baseline Studies' project conducted by the Department of Defence, CSIRO and the Australian Defence Force Academy.<br/><br/>The meteorological station (35.133S, 150.762E) recorded winds and atmospheric pressure at Governor Head (Jervis Bay). The site is several hundred metres inland of 50m high cliffs and is 63m above sea-level.<br/><br/>This record provides wind statistics for August 1989. Five datasets are included here representing different times of the day: 0000-0550, 0600-1150, 1200-1750 and 1800-2350. Individual measurements have been converted so that trends of wind speed and direction can be seen for the time period in question. The fifth dataset incorporates all the wind data collected irrespective of time providing a monthly summary. The station initially recorded wind data at 10 minute intervals.<br/><br/>This is one of thirty-six child records that relate to the parent, 629051e0-2b7b-11dd-a343-00188b4c0af8.

Meteorological data was collected to investigate wind forced circulation in Jervis Bay, NSW
ERIN Dual-processed Landsat TM tiles in Western Australia - Onslow tile
No full textStatement: (1) First the raw Landsat images were geometrically rectified to GDA94 (Datum) and MGA (Projection) and were resampled using cubic convolution,
(2) No attempt was made to radiometrically calibrate these images since images dates image dates were quite apart. Also, the calibration would not have worked over water due to different tide conditions,
(3) Three bands composite Images were produced using dual enhancement technique where land was enhanced using bands 741 (RGB) and water was enhanced using bands 321 (RGB),
(4) Images were cut using 250 000 map extents and were saved in GeoTIFF format.A Landsat TM image was cut using a NATMAP Geoscience Australia 1:250 000 scale map named Onslow (Map number SF50-5) and was saved in GeoTIFF format.<br/><br/>The image was geometrically rectified to GDA94 (Datum) and MGA50 (Projection) and a dual enhancement technique was conducted to Landsat TM satellite data where land was enhanced using bands 741 (RGB) and water was enhanced using bands 321 (RGB). This is one of a series of tiles processed by ERIN from Coastal Atlas project in the 1990's
