Linnaeus Voyage LI2015_V16 (UWY) Underway Data

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This dataset contains the Underway (UWY) data collected on Linnaeus voyage LI2015_V16. The voyage took place on the 8 December 2015 from Hillarys Boat Harbour (WA) to Rottnest Island and back to Hillarys (WA). Voyage Objectives: Servicing the Rottnest Island National Reference Station. There were no CTD deployments undertaken during the voyage. Fluorometer, water depth, SST and TSG data were collected on this voyage. Speed over ground and course over ground data was not available because of a misconfiguration of the GPS instrument. Estimates of low vessel speed were determined manually from a high resolution plot of change of longitude with time. This was possible due to a track course that ran close to an East West direction. Data are stored at 1 second intervals (NetCDF format) and both 10 second 5 minute intervals (.csv format), including a 10 second PDR (Precision depth recorder) file in .csv format. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the data processing report for this voyage.
