Description
Summary:Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Data source: original field data. Data processing by CMAR Data Acquisition and Processing group. A number of discrepancies between the port and starboard air temperature and humidity sensors were noted. A number of rapid temperature increases were noted for both port and starboard temperature sensors. A conductivity lag correction factor was used as part of TSG calibration. Discrepancy between foremast optical and funnel/siphoning rain sensors was noted. SpeedOG data appeared noisier than usual probably due to lack of Differential GPS. The wind speed had a number downward spikes due to anomalous raw wind direction data. See processing report for full details. Credit Underway data processing by A. Sarraf (CMAR). This dataset contains the Underway (UWY) data collected on Southern Surveyor voyage SS2010_V07. The voyage took place southwest of Tasmania(47S,140E) between the 7th and 15th September 2010. This dataset has been processed and archived within the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research Data Centre in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the cruise report for this voyage and/or the data processing report. The standard Underway (=continuously recorded) dataset from a research voyage includes Navigation (NAV), Sounder, Thermosalinograph (TSG) and Meteorological (MET) data. NAV data includes GPS (Global Positioning System) measurements of latitude, longitude, ship's direction and speed. MET data includes atmospheric temperature, humidity and pressure, wind speed and direction, and incident radiation intensity. Data from "IMOS" (Integrated Marine Observing System) sensors are also included. The sensors are port and starboard radiometers and pyranometers, wind speed; rain and rainrate. Data are recorded at 5 second intervals and stored in NetCDF format. For Public Access data (.csv files, 10 sec and 5 min intervals).
