Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Underway meteorological, navigational, physical, profile and time series data collected aboard NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown in the North Pacific Ocean and South Pacific Ocean from 2014-11-05 to 2016-05-17 (NCEI Accession 0123338)

Preview graphic

This dataset contains raw underway meteorological, navigational, physical, profile and time series data logged by the Scientific Computer System (SCS) aboard NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown in the North Pacific Ocean and South Pacific Ocean from 2014-11-05 to 2016-05-17. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO) personnel aboard the ship submitted these data and associated metadata to NCEI. In addition, this dataset contains supplementary cruise-level metadata, which OMAO personnel logged in the Ship Daily Activity Log (SDAL). OMAO and NCEI personnel developed the automated process to archive these data under the auspices of the NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository (NOAA R2R) program.
