IMOS - Ocean Gliders - Seaglider deployment along the coast of New South Wales (August 2011)

Created 23/06/2025

Updated 23/06/2025

The dataset contains temperature, salinity and biological parameters including dissolved oxygen and turbidity data measured by a Seaglider along the coast of New South Wales. Seaglider data from the oceans around Australia have been collected by the Ocean Gliders Facility (formerly known as the Australian National Facility for Ocean Gliders (ANFOG)), since February 2009 and are ongoing. The data are obtained from an onboard suite of instruments which include Seabird-SBE41 CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth), WETLabs BBFL2VMT 3 parameter optical sensor (measuring Chlorophyll-a, CDOM and 650nm Backscatter) and a Seabird-SBE43 dissolved oxygen sensor.
