- Description:
- Project objectives: 1.Establish a monthly climatology of sea-surface temperatures (and derived ocean current patterns) around Western Australia from 1982 to 1997 using NOAA-AVHRR satellite data. 2.Develop appropriate monthly indices of ocean variability and create a historical database of oceanic variables at selected sites, including coastal sea level, sea-surface temperature, salinity and wind. 3.Study relationships between oceanic processes and seasonal/interannual fluctuations in recruitment to the rock lobster, scallop, Australian salmon, pilchard and shark fisheries of Western Australia.
