Bio-physical Oceanography of the Kimberley

Created 04/03/2017

Updated 04/03/2017

WAMSI Kimberley Research Projects The Western Australian Government has declared an intention to establish a number of MPAs in the Kimberley region to preserve and manage its unique biodiversity and conservation values. The WAMSI science plan for physical and biological oceanography in the Kimberley is focused on the southern designated MPA area (Camden Sound) to support physical and biogeochemical process model development. This metadata record describes observational data collected in support of the observational requirements for WAMSI KMRP Projects: 2.2.1 - Physical oceanographic dynamics in the Kimberley 2.2.2 -Pathways to Production : Biogeochemical Processes in the Kimberley Region 2.2.6 - Terrestrial-Ocean Linkages: the role of rivers and estuaries in sustaining marine productivity in the Kimberley.

Primary data sources are: Moored ADCPs Moored Temperature salinity loggers Underway Thermosalinograph CTD casts
