Ferries
Earlier ferry routes were mainly to Belfast, however the Liverpool Viking ferry schedule has recently changed to include more trips to Dublin. The data is logged and recovered during service intervals. However, a small set of these data is routinely transmitted in real time and is accessable via this web site. Current situation and archived plots of crossings These plots show todays sea surface parameters from Irish Sea crossings together with results from the last four weeks. » View temperature » View conductivity » View chlorophyll » View salinity » View turbidity » View pressure » View oxygen concentration » View oxygen saturation » View optode internal temperature » Comparisons with POLCOMS model forecast Pilot study results from the Lagan Viking (previous ferry on route) The following results were taken on trips between Birkenhead and Belfast before the system to link the position to data was installed. Currently the following data set does not link the position of the ferry to the time of the measurement. Using the ship log it may be possible to match the ferry position to each date/time measurement. On future crossings Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements will be routinely gathered and added to the overall data set.
