Brief description

The first oceanographic instruments were deployed in situ at Scott Reef and Rowley Shoals from 1993 to 2003. The measurements began at Scott Reef during July 1993. The full array of instruments was deployed at Scott Reef and Rowley Shoals in August 1994 and remained in place until the end of 1998. Gaps in the individual records reflect losses of data due to instrument failures in situ or incorrect instrument operation. A tide gauge which also recorded near-surface water temperatures was maintained at Scott Reef near-continuously from August 1993 to February 1999. Instruments were also deployed at Mermaid Reef where two years worth of useful sea level and near-surface water temperature data were recorded. In the NW Cape region, productivity and biomass measurements were largely made during the summers of 1997–1998, 1998–1999 and in April 2002 The study made repeated measurements of primary and bacterial production, with associated measurements of hydrographic structure, nutrient stocks, plankton biomass and community structure.
