Marine National Facility - End of Voyage (EOV) Data - Published 05 Jan 2021
The collection includes output from an Australian national implementation of CSIRO's un-structured COMPAS hydrodynamic model to assess the Australian national tidal energy resource. The CSIRO COMPAS m... moreodel was run in 2-D (depth-averaged) mode on an unstructured grid having 183810 cells covering much of Australia's continental shelf and margin. Cell resolution is weighted, with higher resolution in regions with high tidal velocity and nearer to the coast, and is as fine as 500m in places, allowing the near-coastal flows to be simulated, but not the details of individual ports or narrow passages. The model was nested within the Oregon State University Tidal Prediction System (OTPS) 1/6degree global tidal model tpxo9v1 produced by Erofeeva et al (2002). During a calibration/validation phase, the model was run for 15 days using a variety of parameters and evaluated against a database of 683 sea level sites and 95 current velocity sites. The collection includes three files: COMPAS_out66_AUSTEn.nc - includes hourly output of surface elevation (eta) and depth-averaged velocity components (uav, vav) on the unstructured mesh for the period of the simulation. This is 59 days 25/2/2017-24/4/2017. CSIRO_tidal_const_v10_beta.nc - includes elevation and velocity tidal constituents for 11 constituents (Q1, O1, K1, 2N2, N2, M2, S2, M4, MS4, M6, 2MS6), as derived using the t_tide package in MATLAB (Pawlowicz, 2002). This is derived from 222 days 25/2/2017 to 25/10/2017. Aust_current_meter_tidal_cnstits_v1.nc has tidal constituents of the depth-averaged current velocity observed at 95 locations around Australia. It was used for evaluating the barotropic tidal model of Griffin, Herzfeld and Hemer (2020). See also CSIRO_tidal_const_v9.nc. This dataset is not certified as being fit for navigation purposes. Anyone using it for navigation purposes does so entirely at their own risk. The data set has known as well as unknown errors, largely due to idealizations embodied in the model configuration. Factors limiting model accuracy include the spatial resolution, lack of stratification, bathymetry errors, simple parameterization of bottom friction, absence of within-domain tidal body forcing and lack of non-linear interactions with non-tidal flows.less

The dataset was collected from 12 coastal mooring arrays off the southwest coast of Western Australia (WA) during 2009-2020, at depths ranging from 47m to 500m, as part of the IMOS program. It include... mores temperature data from SBE37’s SBE39’s, salinity data from Water Quality Monitors (WQM), and ocean current data from Acoustic Doppler Current Profiles (ADCP) and Nortex ADCP. Here, first version of daily gridded in-situ subsurface temperature, salinity and ocean current, and their climatology are presented. Monthly temperature is also included. This unique dataset offers an invaluable baseline perspective on physical water column properties and temporal variability in WA coastal waters. The data can be used to characterise subsurface features of extreme events such as marine heat waves, marine cold-spells, and to detect long-term change signals along WA coast, influenced by the Leeuwin Current and the wind-driven Capes Current. Here, first version of gridded in-situ subsurface climatological daily and monthly mean temperature, salinity and velocity, was calculated from those deployments. In addition, daily and monthly gridded time series dataset is also available. The data is collected by suite of moorings. It has a mix of Seabird Electronics SBE’37 temperature sensors, Seabird Electronics SBE39’s, Wetlabs Water Quality Meter (WQM), Teledyne RDI Workhorse Sentinel 600kHz and Nortek Continental ADCP instruments. Here, first version of gridded in-situ subsurface climatological daily and monthly mean temperature, salinity and velocity, was calculated from those deployments. In addition, daily and monthly gridded time series dataset is also available. less

Project Overview: A range of solutions will be required to reach globally agreed emissions reductions targets for carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is part of the suite of technol... moreogies that will contribute to lowering atmospheric emissions of CO2 from Australia's energy system. There are a wide variety of technologies at various stages of technical and commercial readiness, with more development underway for cost effective CO2 capture and storage. Our research will provide new knowledge to inform cost-efficient measurement, monitoring and verification (MMV) of the environment of CCS projects in coastal waters. --o-- Description: rements are made with a Battelle Seaology pCO2 monitoring system (MApCO2), a Seabird Seaphox (for dissolved oxygen, pH, Seawater Temperature and Salinity), mounted on a surface buoy similar to the system described in Sutton et al. (2014). The seawater sensor intakes for the MapCO2 and Seaphox are located at about 1m water depth. The CO2 measurement uses a bubble equilibrator (Sutton et al., 2014), where the air from the equilibrator headspace is circulated through a LI-COR 820 non-dispersive infrared detector (NDIR) for measurement of CO2. The system carries out an automated measurement sequence every 2 hours and starts on the even UTC hour, which is the sample time that is recorded. Relevant component details: make, model, serial number, firmware version, settings: Sensor | Make | Model | Serial Number | Calibration fCO2 sensor | Battelle | MApCO2 | 191 | Pre and post deployment calibration; Continuous (see below). pH, DO,T and S sensor | Seabird Seaphox | SeaFET | 1002 |2019-04, factory calibrated pH, DO,T and S sensor | Seabird Seaphox | SBE-37-SMP-ODO | 15567 | 2019-04, factory calibrated pH, DO,T and S sensor | Seabird Seaphox | SBE-63 | 1683 | 2019-04, factory calibrated Calibration Information (if applicable) Battelle: The LI-COR 820 in the Battelle pco2 sensor response is checked before and after each deployment using a range of CO2-in-air reference gases (0, 260, 370, 450 micromol/mol) at CSIRO, Hobart. The sensor measurement using factory calibrations for the LI-CO2 820 is typically within 1 micromol/mol of the reference gas value. If the LI-COR 820 measurements and the CO2-in-air reference gas values are different by more than 2 micromol/mol, a correction is applied to Li-CO2 820 output based the reference gas values. A seawater bath operated over a range of temperatures and CO2 expected in the field is then used to check the MapCO2 system (equilibrator and LI-COR 820 measurement) against a General Oceanics 8050 CO2 sensor to ensure the systems agree within 2 micromol/mol. Pressure measurements are made using the LI-COR 820 pressure sensor, checked against a Druck DPI142 pressure indicator and verified to agree within 0.5 kPa before and after each deployment. Seaphox: SBE 37 (T, S, DO) and the SeaFET (pH) are calibrated by the factory and verified in the CSIRO laboratory. The pH reported in the netcdf files is flagged questionable for the pre-deployment calibrated data due to possible calibration changes which can occur after deployment Location: 38.2564S 147.3372Eless

The platforms were tested in-water in San Francisco bay. A rudimentary calibration was make by suspending a reference sphere of known reflectivity beneath the transducers. The calibration was not exhaustive as this was done in a high current situation in less than ideal depths but served to confirm that the echosounders were operating correctly. The commissioning calibration was followed up with a comprehensive calibration of the acoustic systems in Hobart on the 24th and 26th of March (section 2.3.1). Sea trials were conducted in December 2017 open waters adjacent to San Francisco (Section 3.1).

Assessment of MMV methodologies for subsea CCS: seabed and water column monitoring - ASV - Published 12 May 2020
Measurements are made with a Battelle Seaology pCO2 monitoring system (ASVCO2) is similar to the system described in Sutton et al. (2014). A Seabird Prawler CTD (for Seawater Temperature and Salinity... more) is mounted on the keel, where the Dissolved Oxygen is measured by an Aanderaa optode. The pH is measured using a custom design pH sensor (SCRIPPS) based on a DuraFET sensor using either the internal of external reference (pHin, pHext). The seawater sensor intakes for the ASVCO2 , the Prawler CTD, the Aanderaa optode and the pH sensor are located at about 1m water depth. The CO2 measurement uses a bubble equilibrator (Sutton et al., 2014), where the air from the equilibrator headspace is circulated through a LI-COR 820 non-dispersive infrared detector (NDIR) for measurement of CO2. The system carries out an automated measurement sequence typically every 1 hour. At the beginning of each measurement sequence, the NDIR undergoes a two point calibration with a zero CO2 gas and a high CO2 standard span gas (typically 450-550 micromol/mol), which bracket the range of CO2 mole fractions in seawater and air. The zero CO2 gas is generated by cycling air through a soda lime chamber and silica gel to remove CO2 and water vapour, respectively. The CO2 span gas is prepared by the NOAA Earth Systems Research Laboratory in the USA and calibrated on the WMO X2007 scale with a standard deviation of 0.06 micromol/mol (http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/ccl/airstandard.html). Each measurement cycle of zero and span gas, equilibrator headspace, and air takes 20 minutes with the equilibrator headspace measurement occurring at about 17 minutes followed by the air measurement. The pressure measurements are considered the same for the equilibrator headspace gas and air measurements due to the design of the ASVCO2 system (Sutton et al., 2014) as are the temperature and salinity of the surface seawater and the equilibrator measured by the Seabird Prawler. The data from the ASVCO2, the Prawler CTD, and the pH sensor are transmitted through iridium, typically every 4 hours, whereas the optode data is received via Saildrone as part of 6 hourly netcdf files. The data is part of the calculations for fCO2 and gets added into the processed netcdf files. A. J. Sutton, C. L. Sabine, S. Maenner-Jones, N. Lawrence-Slavas, C. Meinig, R. A. Feely, J. T.

Assessment of MMV methodologies for subsea CCS: seabed and water column monitoring - ASV - Published 11 Apr 2020
Project Overview: A range of solutions will be required to reach globally agreed emissions reductions targets for carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is part of the suite of techno... morelogies that will contribute to lowering atmospheric emissions of CO2 from Australia's energy system. There are a wide variety of technologies at various stages of technical and commercial readiness, with more development underway for cost effective CO2 capture and storage. Our research will provide new knowledge to inform cost-efficient measurement, monitoring and verification (MMV) of the environment of CCS projects in coastal waters. --o-- These are data from the 2017 San Fransisco sea trials trials (09-12-2017 to 15-12-2017) The WBT Mini echosounders were installed by Saildrone in San Francisco in November 2017 on two platforms – SD1007, SD1008.

Trials of two Saildrone platforms (SD1007, SD1008) were conducted between the 28rd March and the 7th of June 2018, commencing in Hobart and finishing in central NSW. The platforms were operated both... more on and off-shelf during this time. The WBT Mini echosounders had a selection of pre-programmed operation settings that were optimised for the particularly water depths. These were selected remotely by Saildrone operators who anticipated changing water depths. The acoustic systems were operated for the first 42 days of the 71 day mission, ceasing on the 9th of May at 17:50. The premature end to acoustic recording was presumably as a side effect of the technical difficulties that the Saildones had been experiencing due to high sea states where power allocation had to be prioritised to controlling the platforms. Additionally a controlled inter-calibration experiment was conducted east of Maria Island from the 5th April 20:30 UTC to 6th April 05:48 UTC. For that experiment both Saildrone platforms and RV Investigator (Voyage IN2018-T1) acquired acoustic and carbon chemistry data in a series of designed movements that will allow comparison of measurements taken at the same time in the same water mass. Results of these experiments will be reported separately. Both Saildrone platforms were able to provide high quality acoustic data sets over a sustained 6-week period in shallow and deep-water situations. less
