The data comes from over 90 permanent temperature logger locations within the reef from the AIMS temperature logger program, 12 AIMS automatic weather stations, 6 AIMS-IMOS mooring sites and 15 Queensland Environment wave-buoys temperature loggers. The data were restricted from late 2015 to mid-2017. For each of the sites, a visualisation dashboard presents summary plots of the data at each available depth that can be interrogated. Daily climatologies are provided so users can quickly determine the thermal history at each site. If the temperature record extends for more than 10 years previous to 2012, a climatological reference derived from the loggers' data is presented. Also, the climatological values derived from the Sea Surface Temperature Atlas of the Australian Regional Seas (SSTAARS) are shown in the dashboard as reference. The reference NOAA's heating indicators Maximum Monthly Mean (MMM), and maximum Degree Heating Week (DHW) for 2016 and 2017 are provided for each of the sites. The original subsetted data can be downloaded following the link at the bottom of this page. The popups in the map link to metadata records of each of the sources. {"type": "Point", "coordinates": [146.494875, -18.571758]} 146.494875 146.494875 -18.571758 -18.571758 Water temperature from Great Barrier Reef 2015 to 2018 documentDigital Water temperature from Great Barrier Reef 2015 to 2018 ZIP AIMS Sea Water Temperature Observing System (AIMS Temperature Logger Program) documentDigital AIMS Sea Water Temperature Observing System (AIMS Temperature Logger Program) HTML eAtlas Project website documentDigital eAtlas Project website HTML wave buoys data .zip [size: 1.635 KB] documentDigital wave buoys data .zip [size: 1.635 KB] ZIP weather stations data subset .zip [size:21.493 KB] documentDigital weather stations data subset .zip [size:21.493 KB] ZIP QLD wave buoys hourly temperature 2015-2017 [zip file 1.5MB] documentDigital QLD wave buoys hourly temperature 2015-2017 [zip file 1.5MB] ZIP IMOS Moorings hourly temp data [zip, size: 19MB] documentDigital IMOS Moorings hourly temp data [zip, size: 19MB] ZIP AIMS Web Site documentDigital audio/basic AIMS Web Site documentDigital audio/basic AIMS Web Site documentDigital audio/basic AIMS Web Site documentDigital audio/basic Unnamed resource documentDigital License Graphic PNG Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
