RV Investigator Voyage IN2016_V03 CTD Data

This record describes the Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2016_V03, titled: "Monitoring Ocean Change and Variability along 170o W from the ice edge to the equator." The voyage took place between April 26 and June 30, 2016 departing from Hobart (TAS) and arriving in Lautoka (Fiji).
Data for 141 deployments were acquired using the Seabird SBE911 CTD 20, fitted with 36 twelve litre bottles on the rosette sampler. CSIRO supplied calibrations were applied to the temperature, conductivity, oxygen, and pressure data. The data were subjected to automated QC to remove spikes and out-of-range values.
The final conductivity calibration is based on multiple deployment groupings, due to sensor and deck box changes. Processing was performed on each unique sensor configuration in order to best account for the individual characteristics of each sensor. The final calibration from the primary sensor for casts 1-7 had a standard deviation (S.D) of 0.00088 PSU, a S.D of 0.00117 for casts 8-46, and S.D of 0.00114 for casts 47-141, well within our target of ‘better than 0.002 PSU’. The standard product of 1 dbar binned averaged were produced using data from the primary temperature and conductivity sensors, and the secondary Oxygen sensor.
Similarly, the dissolved oxygen data were calibrated in groups of deployments due to sensor changes. The agreement between the CTD and bottle data was good.
A Fluorometer, Transmissometer, and altimeter were also installed and logged on the auxiliary A/D channels of the CTD.
The collected data were subsequently processed and archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&amp;A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset may be contained in the Voyage Summary and the CTD Data Processing Report.

North West Shelf Joint Environmental Management Study:InVitro Inputs - Rainfall time series

The daily rainfall time series were constructed from records on the rainfall at the Karratha and Port Hedland airports supplied by the National Climate Centre in the Head Office of the Bureau of Meteorology (P. Reid pers. comm.). These data sets ran from 14/12/1971 for Karratha and from 17/7/1942 for Port Hedland. These data sets were merged using: - an average where a valid entry existed for both time series - the data as supplied if only one valid entry was present - the long term average (through multiple years) if no valid entry for that day in that year in either time series. The resulting combined rainfall series was then converted into a time series of 90 day running sums. Sums rather than averages were used as overall input to the system. These systems are of particular importance for recruitment in the prawn fisheries of the North West Shelf region.

North West Shelf Joint Environmental Management Study:InVitro Inputs - Cyclones

Cyclone tracks were constructed using data supplied by the National Climate Centre in the Head Office of the Bureau of Meteorology. These records contained information on the timing, route and intensity of the cyclone, though prior to the advent of GPS and automated monitoring, some of this information was approximate at best. The final footprint of the cyclone used by the Catastrophe agents in NWS-InVitro was constructed by mapping a polygon over each leg of a cyclone's route, with the track as the centreline and a width of 30km on either side of that central track. These footprints and an intensity index were stored in the Cyclone.data and Disaster.data files for use in NWS-InVitro.

Bioregionalisation in the Australian South-East Marine Region

The National Oceans Office undertook in September 2001 an analysis of Bioregionalisation for the Australian South-east Marine Region, an integration of geological, oceanographic and biological data as the basis for bioregionalisation. The biological and physical assessment was intended to contribute to the implementation of ecosystem-based management in the South-east Marine Region by developing a shared understanding of the ecosystem. The assessment had two streams, ecosystem structure and ecosystem function and incorporated the input from these projects among others: - Production of a consistent, high quality bathymetric data grid for the south-east marine region. - Seabed characterisation including geomorphology, acoustic facies and seabed sampling (GA) - Computer sediment modelling (GEOMAT) - Refine Broad Scale Bioregionalisation (Provinces and Biomes) (CSIRO) - Upgrade deepwater nutrient, water properties and ocean current models (CSIRO) - Rapid assembly of ecological fish data (CSIRO Marine Research in collaboration with Australian Museum, Victoria Museum and NSW Fisheries) - Rapid assembly of ecological invertebrate data (Museum Victoria in partnership with Australia Museum and CSIRO Marine Research) - Bioregionalisation analysis for the South-east Marine Region (CSIRO Marine Research and Australian Geological Survey Organisation [GA]) This dataset contains the spatial distribution of the physical and biological components of the Region resulting from bioregionalisation analysis for the South-east Marine Region. Further detail will be available in the report entitled "An Interim, Draft bioregionalisation for the continental slope and deeper waters of the South-East Marine Region of Australia" by A. Butler, P. Harris et al. (draft only available at time of this metadata compilation).

Initial Baseline Survey of Deepwater Fish in the Ningaloo Commonwealth Marine Reserve (2018 - 2020)

The Ningaloo Commonwealth Marine Reserve (NCMR) lies offshore and adjacent to the state-managed Ningaloo Marine Park (Figure 1). The reserve extends for ~300 km along the west coast and the depth ranges from 50 to 500 m. The NCMR is zoned IUCN Category II – Recreational Use Zone and no commercial fishing is permitted. However, an increasing number of recreational fishers are choosing to move offshore from the state managed Ningaloo Marine Park into the deeper waters of the NCMR. This is concerning because very little is known about the composition and abundance of demersal fish the habitats and depths encompassed by the Commonwealth reserve. It is also one of the few Commonwealth Marine Reserves readily accessible to recreational fishers. We propose a non-extractive survey to establish baseline composition and abundances of fish in the NCMR, and align this with standardised surveys of fishing effort. The survey will employ Standard Operating Procedures for all mapping and sampling activities, as developed in NESP Project D2. Approximately 200 BARUV drops will be conducted in 2019.

Tasmanian Seamounts Study 1997: Benthic Faunal Survey Data

This record describes the benthic assemblage survey data collected as part of the Tasmanian Seamounts Study undertaken by CSIRO Division of Fisheries in January 1997. 34 benthic dredge tows were made on the top, slope and base of 14 seamounts in the survey area, approx. 100 km to the south of Tasmania, using a specially constructed dredge, in water depths ranging from 600m to approx. 2000m. Numerous (&gt;200) invertebrate taxa were recovered representing hydroids, octocorals, polychaetes, bryozoa, bivalve molluscs, cephalopods, barnacles, isopods, decapod crustaceans, crinoids, asteroids, echiuroids, holothurians, hydrozoans, brachiopods, chitons, gastropods, sponges, and other minor groups. The data have been analysed with respect to depth, fishing history (lightly or heavily fished areas), and position on the seamount, and two main community types documented, one dominated by living colonial coral (Solenosmilia variabilis) and one by echinoids (sea urchins). Many of the species found are new records for Australia and a number are new to science. The specimens of select taxa from this survey were re-examined to enable comparison of this survey to two surveys conducted in in the same area in 2006/7 (SS11/2006 &amp; SS02/2007). Identification were upgraded and specimens compared to the new collections by museum experts and integrated into the data. To date (Sept. 2014) we are aware of 20 taxonomic revisions or descriptions that have been published using material from this collection.

Organic geochemistry data for surface seabed sediments in Jervis Bay, NSW (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 50 sample data set comprises %TOC, %TN, TOC/TN ratios, and carbon and nitrogen isotopic ratios for surface (0.0 to 2.0 cm) sediments from Jervis Bay. This dataset is a contribution to the CERF Marine Biodiversity Hub.

GAB Research Program: Project 3.1 – Museum specimens: data collation

This record describes a derived data set of museum records collated and quality assured in 2015 by Shirley Sorokin (SARDI), Franzis Althaus (CSIRO), Karen Gowlett-Holmes (CSIRO) and Jason Tanner (SARDI) under the GAB Research Program. The GABRP aims to describe the key elements of the GAB marine ecosystem. This understanding of the structure and function of the ecosystem will be used to inform future integrated and sustainable ocean management and assessment/mitigation of potential future impacts. The collation and examination of museum data contributed to our endeavor of documenting existing knowledge of species distributions in the GAB region.
Museum database managers were asked to provide an inventory of all specimens listed in their respective data bases that were collected in Australian waters between Perth and Sydney at &gt;=200 m depth. The data were collated and CAAB identifiers were added taking into account differences in spelling, synonyms (outdated names) etc. Where uncertainty in an identification existed the next higher level in the taxonomic hierarchy was used for assigning CAAB.
