Samples of Temperature and Salinity from a CTD profile have been measured at Station 1 in the Derwent Estuary between August 2012 and January 2013. The data is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on the platform in June 2026. It is available in formats including NetCDF, HTML, and PNG.
Use Cases
- Modeling seasonal water column stratification based on temperature and salinity profiles.
- Analyzing estuarine mixing processes based on concurrent temperature and salinity measurements.
- Calibrating or validating hydrodynamic models for the Derwent Estuary based on in-situ profile data.
Strengths
- Data covers a specific 6-month time range from August 2012 to January 2013.
- Measurements are from a defined location (Station 1 in the Derwent Estuary).
- Data is available in the NetCDF format, which is standard for scientific environmental data.
Limitations
- Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
