Full description

The NRS Ningaloo Mooring (IMOS platform code: NRSNIN) is one of a series of 9 national reference stations designed to monitor oceanographic phenomena in Australian coastal ocean waters. The mooring is deployed at Latitude: -21.8668, Longitude: 113.947.
The Ningaloo WA-IMOS national reference station will extend the number of long term time series observations in Australian coastal waters in terms of variables recorded both in their temporal distribution and geographical extent. It will also provide for biological, physical and chemical sampling and for 'ground truth' of remotely sensed observations.
