Description
Summary:Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: asNeeded Statement: Original field data. Data processing performed by the CSIRO O&A Data Acquisition and Processing group. Credit Underway data processing by the MNF Data Acquisition and Processing personnel. Credit This data was collected on the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator voyage IN2019_T03 Data processed by V.Dirita (CSIRO O&A Data Acquisition and Processing Group) This record describes the Underway (UWY) data collected from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator Voyage IN2019_T03, titled: "ORCA: Using the Investigator radar as a moving reference for the Australian operational radar network." The voyage took place between 22 December 2019 and 2nd January 2020 departing from Darwin (NT) and arriving in Fremantle (WA). Standard Underway data is continuously recorded, consisting of: (1) Navigation data (NAV): Latitude, Longitude, Speed, Heading, Course Over Ground, Gyros, and Doppler Log (dual GPS instrument). (2) Thermosalinograph (TSG): Water Salinity, Flow-Rate, Temperature, Fluorescence, pCO2 and Optode/Oxygen. (3) Atmospheric (MET): Humidity, Wind Speed and Direction (vane and ultrasonic), Radiometer/Sea Surface Temperature, Pyranometer/Solar Radiation, Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), Air Temperature, Air Pressure, Rain, Ozone and Trace Gases (port and starboard instruments). The quality-controlled RV Investigator underway meteorological and SST data are supplied to the IMOS AODN where they are publicly available at the "Ships of Opportunity" Thredds server (http://thredds.aodn.org.au/thredds/catalog/IMOS/SOOP/SOOP-ASF/VLMJ_Investigator/catalog.html) for research. From there, they are downloaded by NOAA for their In Situ Quality Monitoring web site (iQUAM2) and made available for satellite SST validation. The SBE 38 SST data are used within the Australian Bureau of Meteorology for real-time satellite SST validation and ingested into real-time SST analyses which are then used as the boundary ...
