IMOS - Ocean Gliders - Seaglider deployment in the Southern Ocean (April 2011)

Created 24/06/2025

Updated 24/06/2025

The dataset contains temperature, salinity and biological parameters like for example dissolved oxygen and turbidity data measured by a Seaglider in the Southern Ocean. The Ocean Gliders Facility (formerly known as the Australian National Facility for Ocean Gliders (ANFOG)), located at the University of Western Australia manages Seagliders to monitor the boundary currents surroundings Australia. The variables available in this dataset are: Temperature, salinity, conductivity, density, pressure, chromophoric dissolved oxygen matter, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence and backscatter coefficient at 660nm.
