Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from UNKNOWN PLATFORMS OF AUSTRALIA in the South Atlantic Ocean from 1972-02-01 to 1977-11-15 (NCEI Accession 9000036)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 27, 2026 at 11:34 PM | Dataset Last Updated: January 07, 2024 at 12:00 AM
This dataset contains ocean station and current data collected by Water & Sewerage Board in South Atlantic Ocean and submitted by Mr. K.H.J. Robin. The physical oceanographic data was collected offshore from Sydney, Australia from February 1972 to November 1977 by Metropolitan Environmental Science and Engineering. This study was designed to determine seasonal, wind and tidal effects on current patterns and density structure. In addition, the following parameters were measured: dissolved oxygen, hydrogen ion concentration, nutrient concentration, pH and water clarity.
