2019-20 Honours project - Unlocking the potential of Triaxus for studying biogeochemistry

These files contain the metadata adopted and MATLAB code edited as well as visual plots generated in the Hongkun Honour's project. The data mainly includes the shipboard ADCP data and vertical cast type of Triaxus data collected from RV Investigator during the voyage IN2016V04 and IN2018T01 and satellite data (chlorophyll, sea level anomaly & sea surface temperature) collected from the IMOS website on the study region. The data was processed in MATLAB and then used to find visualization results, with the ultimate aim of exploring the potential of Triaxus in biogeochemistry.

Resource lineage

Statement
All Triaxus datasets were downloaded in netcdf format from the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) website. These datasets were identified in the Marlin metadata system by searching for the keyword Triaxus. The Triaxus data was collected by a range of oceanographic sensors attached to the Triaxus platform which was deployed between the surface and ~ 200-350 metres depth. Sensors included CTD, Dissolved oxygen, Transmissometer, Cosine Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) and ECO Triplet. The ADCP data for all of the voyages (identified by searching for the keyword ADCP) was downloaded in netcdf format from the CSIRO Marlin metadata system. All the satellite datasets identified by the corresponding keyword (chlorophyll, SLA & SST) were downloaded in netcdf format from the IMOS website.
