GIS Layer: Incident Light (PAR) in the Australian Region

ESRI grid showing the mean incident light for each quarter. This data is the surface solar irradiance data obtained for NASA/GISS to allow the prodction of photosynthetically active solar irradiance fields to allow the calculation of primary productio using satellite ocean colour products. The information comes from the Internation Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) using C1 data from multiple geostationary and polar orbiting meterological satellites to provide a global view of the occurrence and properties of clouds. Atmospheric, cloud and surface data from ICSSP are used as input along with a scheme for computing clear-sky irradiance from the solar zenith angle, air properties, and surface reflectance. The scheme then uses simple cloud properties (cloud fraction, cloud optical thickness, and diffuse albedo) to produce total and photosynthetically active solar irradiance fields (Bishop and Rossow 1991; ISCCP Documentation of Cloud Data; Frouin et al. 1989). Input and output data fields are given in a 2.5° latitude and longitude grid. These grids have 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.

CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas (CARS) 2006 Bottom Water Salinity Data Standard Deviation

CARS2006 spans the southern 2/3 of the worlds oceans, from 70S to 26N, except in the Atlantic where is reaches only to10N. The six water properties mapped in are temperature (deg C), salinity (PSU), oxygen (ml/litre), nitrate (micromole/litre), silicate (micromole/litre), phosphate (micromole/litre). It comprises historic mean fields and average seasonal cycles, derived from all available historical subsurface ocean property measurements (primarily research vessel instrument casts and autonomous profiling buoys). The standard deviation for the salinity data is used to show the spatial and temporal variation of salinity in the bottom water utilising all of the historical data for each day of the year. This dataset is a contribution to the CERF Marine Biodiversity Hub.

Report on the Distribution of Mangroves in Torres Strait 1997

The mangroves of Torres Strait were mapped with classified Landsat TM satellite imagery. There was 15,663 ha of mangrove mapped on the islands and reefs of central Torres Strait. The largest area of mangrove, 4,744, 3,209, 1,484 and 1,142 ha were mapped on the islands of Boigi, Saibai, Moa and Turnagain Island respectively, which accounted for over two-thirds, 68%, of the mangroves of the central Torres Strait study area. Approximately one-third (49) of the 174 islands of central Torres Strait had mangroves. There was a significant correlation between the distribution of mangroves and the underlying geology; most of the mangroves in Torres Strait were located on coastal alluvium landform features. The mangrove basemaps have been entered into the Torres Strait Geographic Information System for future research, monitoring and conservation planning.

 - Feb 2015 - Jan 2016: Temperature - Airlie Island, Ashburton Island, Bessieres Island, Direction Island, Gorgon Patch, Hastings Shoal, Locker Island, Paroo Shoal, Roller Shoal, Serrurier Island, Twin Island, Ward Reef, and West Reef
Note: Wave and Temperature loggers were deployed as singular instruments at each site.
This Dataset sits within the Environmental Pressures (Drivers) theme.
The Pilbara Marine Conservation Partnership (PMCP) was an initiative designed to enhance the net conservation benefits of the globally-significant coral reef ecosystems of the Pilbara (Western Australia) by providing an assessment of the condition and trajectory of key ecological values. These assessments were designed to inform and complement existing governance and management arrangements and the PMCP is intended to provide ongoing advice and assessment for conservation efforts in the region, providing lasting benefits.
The PMCP concept is based on three core ecological components, namely:
Coral Reef Health - concentrating mainly on habitat forming primary producers.
Fish and Sharks - their community structure, interactions and impacts on lower trophic levels.
Environmental Pressures - physical and anthropogenic factors that influence the condition of reefs and associated biota.
