This dataset contains Bathythermograph (XBT) and Marine Mammal Sighting and Census data. The Marine Mammal Sighting and Census data type contains data from field observations of marine mammals obtained from aircraft and various other platforms. Data were collected as part of Distribution/Abundance of Marine Mammals in Gulf of Mexico (GULFCET I project) funded by grant no MMS 14-35-0001-30619. The data were collected over two year period from April 24, 1992 to June 10, 1994. 19 files of data containing 2,917 records was submitted by Dr. Giulietta Fargion of Texas A&M University, College Station, TX.

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, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
