The dataset contains temperature, salinity and biological parameters like for example dissolved oxygen and turbidity data measured by a Slocum glider in the region off Pilbara (Western Australia). 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.
