Description
Summary:Maintenance and Update Frequency: asNeeded Statement: http://content.aodn.org.au/Documents/IMOS/Facilities/national_mooring/IMOS_NRS_BGCManual_LATEST.pdf Credit Data was sourced from Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) – IMOS is enabled by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS). It is operated by a consortium of institutions as an unincorporated joint venture, with the University of Tasmania as Lead Agent. This dataset comprises all the sampling information from the Integrated Marine Observing system (IMOS) collection of bio-geochemical (BGC) sampling undertaken primarily at the National Reference Stations (NRS). Other IMOS funded mooring and sampling data is also included such as the Southern Ocean Time Series Mooring (SOTS), the Coastal Sampling Program and the array of moorings managed by SARDI. A regular monthly water sampling program is undertaken at the NRS at the location of the IMOS mooring. Currently 7 stations are sampled regularly around the Australian coastline, Esperance and Ningaloo were discontinued in 2013. Information on the stations, sampling procedures and parameters collected at the NRS stations can be found in the NRS BGC handbook located at: http://content.aodn.org.au/Documents/IMOS/Facilities/national_mooring/IMOS_NRS_BGCManual_LATEST.pdf All other sampling programs included in this collection follow these protocols unless otherwise stated.
