Physical and other data were collected from CTD casts, current meters, and other instruments. Data were collected by the Japanese Hydrographic Office from 01 January 1989 to 31 December 1989. Formats for data are not available at this time.

This dataset contains sixteen XBT datasets collected as part of Shipboard Environmental data Acquisition System (SEAS) III program. The cruises were conducted using many different ships. The bathythermograph (XBT) data was collected between August 30, 1990 and July 24, 1991. The data were sent from the cruise ships to the National Ocean Service, Rockville, MD via telecommunication. This data is currently available in the C116 file format of NODC.

The data in this accession was collected as part of Joint Global Ocean Flux Study/ North Atlantic Bloom Survey (JGOFS/NABS) using Ships ENDEAVOR and ATLANTIS II. JGOFS North Atlantic Bloom Experiment Data; CTD Data plus Beam Attenuation and Fluorescence Data were collected by Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Moss Landing Marine Laboratory between April 20, 1989 and July 6, 1989. The originators data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi-Res file format of NODC.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Exchange format. The data was collected from Florida Straits using Ship ENDEAVOR. The data was collected over a period spanning from June 3, 1990 to June 16, 1990. Data was submitted by Dr. Michael C. Gregg, University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC.

Temperature profile data were collected using XBT and BT casts from NOAA Ship MALCOLM BALDRIGE and other platforms in a World-wide distribution from 22 June 1990 to 29 August 1991. Data were collected by the National Ocean Service (NOS) with support from the Deep Freeze project. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Universal Bathythermograph Output (UBT) format.

Temperature and salinity profiles were collected from CTD casts in the Gulf of Mexico and coastal water of South Alaska from 1991-03-26 to 1991-07-10. Casts were made from NOAA Ship MT. MITCHELL, NOAA Ship WHITING, and NOAA Ship RAINIER. Data was submitted by National Ocean Service, Rockville, MD. NCEI converted the originator data into the NCEI F022 standard format which are included in this accession.

The data in this accession were collected in 26 cruises conducted using multiple ships over a decade between August 1980 to July 1991. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. One box of analog stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC by Mr. Paul Stevens of Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey CA. The XBT data from these stripcharts have been digitized and are present in the current NODC data storage system in C116 file format.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) data containing 181 data sets were collected as part of ENDICOTT project. Data was collected using many small vessels. The data was collected over a period spanning from July 23, 1985 to September 14, 1987. Data was submitted by EBASCO Environmental, Bellevue, WA in a tape. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC.

The water depth and temperature data was collected in Bering Sea from ship CONTINUITY in 1991. The data was collected between June 30, 1991 to August 19, 1991. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT) data was submitted in a diskette by National Marine Fisheries Service, Seattle, WA. The data has been converted and is now available on line in C116 file format of NODC.

The accession contains New York City Department Harbor Survey Data from years 1968 to 1990. Station data was collected as part of the NYC Department of Environmental Protection's Harbor Survey at the Hudson River along Manhattan, New York Bight, Long Island Sound. Parameters measured were salinity, dissolved oxygen, total coliform counts/ml, and fecal coliform counts/100 ml were recorded as 80-column ASCII files (SAS file format); each line in the file represents sampling data from a single site per day. Data was submitted on a diskette.
