Four pairs of long-term oceanographic moorings have been installed north to south along the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) with one of each pair located on the continental shelf slope notionally in ~200 metres depth (70-400m) and the other on the outer continental shelf complex in 30-70 metres.

The design allows water moving along and onto the GBR to be measured by monitoring the poleward East Australian and the equatorward Hiri western boundary currents.
