The global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation (RO) technique has proven to be an effective tool for Earth atmosphere profiling. Traditional spaceborne RO satellite constellations are expensive with relatively low sampling rates for individual satellites. Airborne RO platforms can provide much higher spatial and temporal sampling of ROs around regional weather events. This dataset is the result of a paper which explores the capability of a low-cost and scalable Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) GNSS receiver onboard high-altitude balloons.

The NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center conducted surveys within the southern North Carolina estuarine system from 2018-01-08 to 2018-01-26 to provide an updated estimate of abundance for the Southern North Carolina Estuarine System Stock (SNCESS) of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) using photographic-identification capture-mark-recapture (photo-ID) techniques.

This dataset contains Sea Water Pressure, Sea Water Temperature, and others chemical compounds measurements collected with CTD-Rosette from the Canadian Coast Guard Ship (CCGS) Amundsen in Barrow, Alaska, and Kugluktuk. The data represents oceanographic variable measurements collected during the Leg2b of the Annual Expedition onboard the Canadian Coast Guard Ship (CCGS) Amundsen on the year 2014 in Barrow, Alaska and Kugluktuk regions of the Arctic. The Leg2b was a joint Canada-Japan-USA mission. The data was acquired between September 09, 2014 and September 25, 2014.

This dataset contains a cruise report for CTD data collected from the research vessel Falkor in Juan de Fuca Canyon, Barkley Canyon from 2013-08-16 to 2013-09-19. Data for this accession are archived in NCEI accession 0181414 (see cross reference under the Documentation on the Landing page). This dataset is U.S. State Department MSR U2013-022 as part of the World Data Services for Oceanography. Cruise report is in pdf.

This dataset includes the profile discrete measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, CTD salinity and temperature collected during the R/V Xuelong CHINARE2008 cruise (EXPOCODE 76XL20080730) in the Arctic Ocean, Chukchi Sea from 2008-07-30 to 2008-09-11. The CHINARE project is an international collaboration between U.S. and Chinese scientists to study the water column carbonate chemistry in the western Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea.

This dataset contains dissolved organic carbon (DOC) carbon isotopes and other data collected near the Dotson Ice Shelf during Amundsen project cruise from 2016-01-15 to 2016-01-18 by scientists of Korea Polar Research Institute (KOPRI). DOC concentration obtained with TOC analyzer and carbon isotopic composition were measured with accelerator mass spectrometer. This dataset also compiled all available radiocarbon (14C) data from sinking and suspended particulate organic carbon (POC), sedimentary organic carbon (SOC), and DOC from the Amundsen Sea.

Photoquadrat benthic images were collected within the Kahekili Herbivore Fisheries Management Area (KHFMA) in West Maui by the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC) Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD; formerly the Coral Reef Ecosystem Division) for quantifying benthic composition.

This dataset is only the imagery from 2021 missions in March and November; the benthic cover data produced is archived separately in NCEI accession 0165015.

Tissue samples for species DNA barcoding and associated whole voucher specimens and their photographs were collected during NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service, Southeast Fisheries Science Center research vessel bottom and midwater trawl surveys in the Gulf of Mexico from (2010-02-01 to 2021-07-19). This dataset represents the tissue samples and voucher specimens archived at the Tulane University Biodiversity Research Center (TUBRI), New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Tissue samples and associated photographs were collected both during field studies and post-survey in the laboratory.

This dataset includes surface underway, chemical, meteorological and physical data collected from NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow in the North Atlantic Ocean, US North East Coast in 2022.

One mooring was deployed near the M45 station by the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) from October 2020 to June 2021. These observations support the GLERL Long-Term Ecological Research program. The M45 station is part of the Muskegon Transect in Lake Michigan near the NOAA Lake Michigan Field Station, Muskegon, MI. The “M45X” mooring is a physical and biological mooring that collects temperature and fluorometer measurements near the surface and bottom over the winter. The approximate depth of this mooring location was 45 m.
