CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas
CARS is a digital atlas of seasonal ocean water properties, covering the seas around Australia. The six water properties mapped are temperature, salinity, oxygen, nitrate, silicate, phosphate.
The present version of the atlas is called CARS2000. A new version called CARS2006 will soon be available, but only for bona fide non-commercial research use.
| Variables | Temperature (degC), Salinity (psu), oxygen (ml/l), nitrate (uM), phosphate (uM), silicate (uM) |
| Zonal | 100E to 160W by 0.5 deg |
| Meridional | 50S to 0N by 0.5 deg |
