Mapset: Sea Surface Temperature Quarterly and Overall Means in the Northern Marine Region

Map showing sea surface temperature quarterly and overall means in the Northern Marine region. The CSIRO Marine Research Remote Sensing facility automatically receives and archives data from the USA's National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellites. Up to 18 passes per day are tracked to receive data. The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data is received on the High Resolution Picture Transmission (HRPT) signal. Within an hour of reception, these data are automatically processed into full resolution sea surface temperature (SST) images. Raw data originate from the AVHRR sensor on various NOAA polar orbiting satellites, received at various stations around Australia and consolidated ("stitched") by the CSIRO Earth Observation Centre. The stitching removes redundancy and minimises data corruption. Processing from the stitched archive to produce SST is carried out in the CMR Remote Sensing Facility in Hobart using the split window algorithm of McMillin for NOAA9 and NOAA12 satellites and the NLSST (NOAA non-linear SST) algorithm for the other satellites. Cloud-clearing is performed based on the algorithm of Saunders and Kriebel. Each map is made by combining the estimates over the composite period using a time and spatial neighbourhood median filtering method. Each pixel of the images is the 65 percentile of all cloud-cleared SST estimates during the composite period and within a 4x4 km region. The compositing process also removes most residual cloud contamination. This map has been produced by CSIRO for the National Oceans Office, as part of an ongoing commitment to natural resource planning and management through the 'National Marine Bioregionalisation' project.

TCO2 fluxes and pools for sediments in Jervis Bay, NSW (June and August 2008 and February 2009)

Geoscience Australia carried out marine surveys in Jervis Bay (NSW) in 2007, 2008 and 2009 (GA303, GA305, GA309, GA312) to map seabed bathymetry and characterise benthic environments through colocated sampling of surface sediments (for textural and biogeochemical analysis) and infauna, observation of benthic habitats using underwater towed video and stills photography, and measurement of ocean tides and wavegenerated currents. Data and samples were acquired using the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) Research Vessel Kimbla. Bathymetric mapping, sampling and tide/wave measurement were concentrated in a 3x5 km survey grid (named Darling Road Grid, DRG) within the southern part of the Jervis Bay, incorporating the bay entrance. Additional sampling and stills photography plus bathymetric mapping along transits was undertaken at representative habitat types outside the DRG. This 126 sample data set comprises TCO2 flux and pool data for surface seabed sediments (~0 to 2 cm). This dataset is a contribution to the CERF Marine Biodiversity Hub.

CCS - MV Bluefin 2017 V01 Oxygen

Project Overview:  A range of solutions will be required to reach globally agreed emissions reductions targets for carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is part of the suite of technologies that will contribute to lowering atmospheric emissions of CO2 from Australia's energy system. There are a wide variety of technologies at various stages of technical and commercial readiness, with more development underway for cost effective CO2 capture and storage. Our research will provide new knowledge to inform cost-efficient measurement, monitoring and verification (MMV) of the environment of CCS projects in coastal waters.

Cockburn Sound Seagrass Filter Feeder Survey Data Western Australia 1994

This dataset contains the results from quadrat surveys from 5 sites in Cockburn Sound, Perth, Western Australia. A survey was conducted in September 1994 to determine the biomass and distribution of filter feeders in relation to seagrass distributions. Macro-suspension-feeders biomass was high in Posidonia meadows and generally lower in bare sediment, although on bare sediment the introduced polychaete Sabella spallanzanii reached considerable biomass. Epifaunal feeders on Posidonia leaves reached a substantial biomass. Heterozostera and Amphibolis meadows appear to support a low biomass of macro-suspension-feeders and epifaunal feeders.

Effects of Prawn Trawling in the Torres Strait - Final Report 1993

Torres Strait Fisheries Scientific Advisory Committee (TSFSAC) Effects of Trawling - Final Report. This project was funded by the Commonwealth Department of Primary Industries to assess the impact of trawling on the fish, turtle and selected invertebrate abundances in Torres Strait. It began in October 1983 and was completed in September 1990. The objective of the project was to put the issue into perspective by:

describing the Torres Strait prawn trawl fishery;
measuring the long-term and short-term effects of prawn trawling on fish communities;
quantifying the overlap between prawn trawling and the Islander fisheries (traditional and commercial).

Refer to the final report:
Poiner IR and Harris ANM. (1993) To ascertain whether prawn trawling has a significant effect on the fish, turtle and selected invertebrate populations of Torres Strait, particularly as it affects those species which are used as food by Torres Strait Islanders.
