John Brewer Reef Automated Marine Weather And Oceanographic Station
This dataset contains meteorological and sea temperature data collected from the weather station, which was moored on John Brewer Reef on the Great Barrier Reef for the period from 31 July 1987 to 30 May 1988. The system used automatic relaying of data in "real time" mode.Data Recorded: Sea Temperature, Sea Surface Temperature, Atmospheric Pressure, Air Temperature, Solar Radiation, Wind Direction True, Wind Speed True.
These data are collected to support scientific research at AIMS. Data are made available on request to other researchers and to the public.
The weather station was an AIMS Mk2 System.

- Statement
- Statement: The weather sensors used were:Wind Run: Didcot 3 cup anemometer with magnetic reed switch contact (324 contacts/km wind run).Wind Direction: Aanderaa Model 2053 Oil damped, 360° solenoid clamped, potentiometer.Air temperature: OMEGA 0-90-UUA-35J3 5K thermistor housed in radiation screenBarometric Pressure: Aanderaa Model 2810 Monolithic sensing element (temperature stabilised) housed in main equipment enclosure.Solar Radiation: Licor Model L1-I92SB Underwater Quantum sensorAccuracies quoted below are the sum of calibration, sensor change, drift with time, and an ambienttemperature range of 0-40°C.Temperature: ± 0.3°C.Water temp: 30 minutes settling time.Solar radiation: 5 % of reading.Barometric pressure: ± 1 hecto pascal.Wind speed 2% of reading.Wind direction 2% of reading.Settling time for solar radiation and wind parameters was 30 seconds (anti aliasing filters).
