Sea Water Temperature Logger Data at Pioneer Bay, Great Barrier Reef (1992-2011)

Temperature loggers deployed at Pioneer Bay collected sea water temperature data from 08 March 1992 to 07 July 2011. The Australian Ocean Data Network hosts this dataset, which was last updated on 27 June 2026. This long-term record likely contains continuous or periodic temperature measurements from a specific reef site.

Use Cases

• Analyze long-term sea temperature trends based on the 19-year time range mentioned in the title
• Model coral bleaching risk based on temperature data collected at a specific reef site
• Calibrate satellite-derived sea surface temperature products based on in-situ logger data
• Study seasonal and inter-annual temperature variability in a coastal reef environment

Strengths

• Data collection spans 19 years, from 08 March 1992 to 07 July 2011
• Focuses on a specific, ecologically significant location at Pioneer Bay on the Great Barrier Reef
• Hosted 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
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to data_gov_au, focusing on a single site
