Dip Reef in the Great Barrier Reef is the location for this sea water temperature time series collected by one or more deployed temperature loggers. The Australian Ocean Data Network published the data, which spans from 25 April 1996 to 01 May 2026. The dataset was last updated on 08 June 2026.
Use Cases
- Modeling coral bleaching risk based on long-term temperature time series.
- Analyzing sea surface temperature trends in the Great Barrier Reef region.
- Calibrating satellite-derived sea surface temperature products with in-situ logger data.
- Studying the impact of climate change on a specific reef site over a 30-year period.
Strengths
- Data collection covers a long temporal range from 1996 to 2026.
- Focuses on a specific, named reef site (Dip Reef) within the Great Barrier Reef.
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 bias inherent to data_gov_au.
