Huon Estuary Study 1996/1998 - Phytoplankton Pigment and Optical Data

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

The Huon Estuary Study was undertaken by CSIRO Marine Research between 1996 and 1998. The Huon Estuary is in South Eastern Tasmania. This record references the optical absorption data from both the spatial (HES) and the weekly monitoring (CM) surveys of the Huon Estuary Study. This dataset includes phytoplankton, spectral absorption and HPLC pigments. Final data for the pigment and phytoplankton data has been stored within the HES database which has been refered to by metadata record 'Huon Estuary Study 1996/1998 - Database'. The final datasets have also been written to cdrom as text files for archiving purposes by the Data Centre, Hobart. The spectral absortion data is scheduled to be reworked and will be added to the archive when it becomes available.
