Raine Island Air Pressure Measurements from 2011 to 2018

Raine Island weather data collected by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) Weather Station. The dataset contains air pressure readings from 11 December 2011 to 30 October 2018. It is published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze atmospheric pressure trends over time based on the multi-year time-series data.
• Study local weather phenomena on Raine Island based on the sensor-collected meteorological data.
• Correlate air pressure changes with other environmental variables for the specified time period.
• Validate or calibrate regional climate models using ground-truth station data from the island.

Strengths

• Data covers a specific 7-year period from December 2011 to October 2018.
• Collected from a dedicated AIMS Weather Station, suggesting a standardized collection method.
• Published by the authoritative Australian Ocean Data Network.

Limitations

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