Underway Marine Data from RV Solander Trip 8393, Sep 2024

From 10 to 20 September 2024, the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System collected underway data via the RV Solander. The data originates from the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility of the Ships of Opportunity program. It is aggregated by the Australian Ocean Data Network.

Use Cases

• Analyzing oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor data mentioned in the description
• Studying temporal variability in marine parameters based on the specified 10-day collection period
• Calibrating satellite observations based on in-situ data from a research vessel
• Modeling regional ocean dynamics based on data from the tropical research vessel RV Solander

Strengths

• Data collection period is precisely defined as 10-20 September 2024.
• Data is collected under a structured national observing system (IMOS).
• Data is served via standardized web services (WMS).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic/temporal bias inherent to a single vessel trip.
