Sea Water Temperature Logger Data at Nth Barnards, Great Barrier Reef (2005-2025)

Temperature logger data collected from the Nth Barnards (Jesse Is) site on the Great Barrier Reef. The data covers a time range from 11 August 2005 to 22 May 2025. It was collected by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 18 April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling coral bleaching risk based on recorded sea temperature data.
• Analyzing seasonal and long-term temperature variability at a specific reef site.
• Validating satellite-derived sea surface temperature products with in-situ logger data.

Strengths

• Covers a 20-year time series from 2005 to 2025, providing long-term context.
• Data is specific to the Nth Barnards site on the Great Barrier Reef, a key ecological location.

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, focusing on a single Australian site.
