Abstract
|
This data collection contains observations from moored instruments primarily from New Zealand and Antarctic waters deployed
by the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) and its predecessor the DSIR. Data was sourced from a
range of instrumentation over many decades, with primary measured variables including temperature, pressure, salinity,
and current speed/direction. More recently, other chemical and biological variables may be found within data records. Data
quality checking is variable but mostly quality controlled to remove bad data using visual checks on records – see individual
un-subsetted files for specific information relating to contained data.
