Brief description

This metadata record covers a subset of the data collected during dredging by the Townsville Port Authority in Cleveland Bay in 1993. Data are divided into a number of main groups: Wind, tide gauge, wave rider, S4, sediment traps, water samples and nephelometers. The data are grouped according to collection method and sampling location. See the metadata record title for collection method and geographic extent for the sampling location. Unique site numbers were assigned within Cleveland Bay at which data were collected. Some of these sites were named, and others were unnamed.
