Full description

Bathymetry data was recorded throughout the study region using a downward looking Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler mounted in the transom of a small boat. Data was recorded along transects within the lagoons, in front of both reefs, across the reef tops and within the reef gaps. This activity relied heavily on favourable weather and tidal heights.
These data are a component of the project 'Ningaloo Reef Circulation Study, Western Australia (1997)'.
