WATER TEMPERATURE and Other Data from MULTIPLE SHIPS From World-Wide Distribution from 1961-01-01 to 1990-12-12 (NCEI Accession 9400138)
Sixty-two (62) data files and one doc file from Dr. Alan Longhurst, Bedford Institute of Oceanography, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. These contain chlorophyll data from North Atlantic received from NODC's Ocean Climate Laboratory via File Transfer Protocol. Data were collected during multiple cruises associated with various projects including JGOFS/NABE, CUEA, FOCAL, and ICES from 1961-1990. The format is contained in a .DOC file; parameters are: cruise, station, position, date, depth in meters, and chlorophyll-a in mg/cubic meter.

Supplemental Information | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
