Marmion Hydrology and Nutrient Data 1979-1982

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This dataset contains temperature, salinity and nutrient data collected off Marmion, Perth, Western Australia between June 1979 and June 1982. 33 surveys were carried out at approximately monthly intervals on transects and/or grid surveys in this region. Nutrients measured comprise nitrate, reactive silicate, inorganic phosphate, nitrite, and dissolved organic phosphate (DOP). Observations on weather conditions and water quality accompany the printed version of the data. The surveys were undertaken to obtain baseline information for the Division of Fisheries & Oceanography Coastal Ecology research program established at Marmion in the late 1970s. Full listings of the surveys and results are presented in the documentation. The locations of the sampling stations are indicated in the attached map (see "Links" section).
