Rainfall Data from Agincourt Reef Weather Station, March 2013

Agincourt Reef Number 3 weather station data collected by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The dataset contains rainfall measurements from sensors deployed on the reef, with a specific record from 20 March 2013. It originates from the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) monitoring network.

Use Cases

• Analyze short-term rainfall intensity based on sensor measurements from a specific date.
• Model local weather conditions on coral reefs based on data from a dedicated marine station.
• Correlate rainfall events with other environmental parameters collected by the AIMS network.
• Validate satellite precipitation estimates using ground-truth sensor data from a marine location.

Strengths

• Data originates from a dedicated Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) weather station, suggesting institutional collection standards.
• Provides a specific temporal anchor point for the recorded rainfall event on 20 March 2013.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
