PCIMP Bioaccumulation Data from South Trees Inlet Oysters (2007-2018)

Sensor data collected from Zone 09a in South Trees Inlet (lower) as part of the Port Curtis Integrated Monitoring Program (PCIMP). The dataset covers bioaccumulation measurements in oysters from 15 September 2007 to 16 November 2018. It is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on the platform in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze temporal trends in oyster bioaccumulation based on the 11-year monitoring period mentioned in the title
• Model environmental contaminant levels in Port Curtis based on the bioaccumulation data described
• Assess water quality and ecosystem health in South Trees Inlet based on the monitoring program's focus

Strengths

• Data collection spans over 11 years, from September 2007 to November 2018
• Focuses on a specific geographic zone (09a - South Trees Inlet lower) for localized analysis
