Sea Water Temperature Logger Data at Green Island, Great Barrier Reef, 1996-2023

Australian Ocean Data Network collected this sea water temperature data set from one or more loggers deployed around Green Island, Queensland. The data covers a long-term period from 26 March 1996 to 05 September 2023. It was last updated on the platform in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling coral bleaching events based on long-term temperature trends.
• Analyzing seasonal and inter-annual temperature variability in a reef environment.
• Calibrating satellite-derived sea surface temperature products with in-situ logger data.
• Studying the impact of temperature anomalies on marine biodiversity at a specific reef site.

Strengths

• Data spans over 27 years, providing a long-term environmental record.
• Focuses on a specific, ecologically significant location 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 for large-scale modeling.
