Brief description
The NRS Yongala Mooring (IMOS platform code: NRSYON) is one of a series of 9 IMOS - ANMN National Reference Station (NRS) designed to monitor oceanographic phenomena in Australian coastal ocean waters . The buoy is located near the Yongala Wreck, out from Cape Bowling Green in the central Great Barrier Reef, at Latitude: -19.305, Longitude: 147.622. The IMOS national reference stations 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.Lineage
