        abstract:  This dataset contains oceanographic and surface meteorological data collected at Norrie Point weather/hydro, a fixed station in the Hudson River. These sensors measure AIR TEMPERATURE, BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, CHLOROPHYLL, CONDUCTIVITY, DEPTH - OBSERVATION, DEWPOINT, DISSOLVED OXYGEN, INCOMING SOLAR RADIATION, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, OXYGEN - PERCENT SATURATION, PRECIPITATION AMOUNT, RELATIVE HUMIDITY, SALINITY, WATER LEVEL, WATER TEMPERATURE, WIND DIRECTION, WIND GUST, WIND SPEED, pH and turbidity at frequent intervals in the nearshore coastal ocean. Hudson River Environmental Conditions Observing System (HRECOS) collected the data and provided the data to MARACOOS, which assembles data from Hudson River Environmental Conditions Observing System (HRECOS) and other sub-regional coastal and ocean observing systems of the Mid-Atlantic Coastal United States, submitted the data to NCEI as part of the Integrated Ocean Observing System Data Assembly Centers (IOOS DACs) Data Stewardship Program. The data are made available in netCDF formatted files, which follow the Climate and Forecast metadata convention (CF) and the Attribute Convention for Data Discovery (ACDD). Each month, NCEI adds to this dataset the data collected during the previous month. Norrie Point is a bedrock outcropping into the main stem of the Hudson River adjacent to a cove. During the growing season (June – September), the cove is dominated by the invasive floating macrophyte Trapanatans. Norrie Point has a tidal range of 1.19 meters and has a soft silty bottom. The depth at the sampling location ranges from approximately 1.0 to 3.0 meters. YSI sondes are deployed at Norrie Point approximately 3.0 meters off the bottom in a perforated four-inch aluminum tube that is vertically mounted to a piling at the end of a dock. The datalogger contains sensors for temperature, conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, chlorophyll a, and depth**. GOES telemetry equipment includes a larger solar panel and battery, a larger enclosure to house the battery, a Sutron Satlink 2 transmitter, associated GPS for time synchronization and a Yagi antenna.
        purpose:  This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.

                code:  anemometer
            type:  anemometer
            description:  measures wind speed An anemometer is an instrument that measures wind speed. Note that an aerovane (insttypes_id 175) is an anemometer which has a tail and a propeller to measure the speed and direction of the wind.

                code:  humidity sensor
            type:  humidity sensor
            description:  HUMIDITY SENSORS are devices that receive a signal or stimulus (as heat or pressure or light or motion etc.) and responds to it, in this case humidity or some measure of the water vapor content of air.
        instrument:  (MI_Instrument)
            identifier:  (MD_Identifier)
                code:  multi-parameter water quality sensor
            type:  multi-parameter water quality sensor
            description:  used to measure temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and other parameters Instrument used to measure temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and other parameters, often used to measure water quality parameters. Can be a hand-held instrument or a sonde for unattended monitoring. Often used in coastal water monitoring stations. YSI is the preeminent brand (as of 2024).

                code:  oxygen sensor
            type:  oxygen sensor
            description:  Any instrument that measures oxygen content in a compound.

                code:  PAR Sensor
            type:  PAR Sensor
            description:  Photosynthetically Active Radiation Sensor The PAR sensor measures global solar radiation from 400 to 700 nm, which approximates the spectral band active in photosynthesis. The response of the instrument falls sharply to zero on either side of this band, and between 400 and 670 nm it increases monotonically from about 50% to 100%. There is no protective glass dome over the receiving surface. Irradiance from the sun passes through a small white visible bandpass filter/diffuser in the shape of a horizontal disk at the top of the instrument. Within the instrument radiation is directed through a series of colored glass filters and onto a silicon photodiode detector. The factory-supplied calibration converts the signal from the detector to a flux of photons in micro-mole (of photons) s-1 m-2. (One micro-mole equals 6.022 E17 photons.) For the solar spectrum, these units may be converted to watts per square meter by dividing by 4.6. (http://www.srrb.noaa.gov/instrument/par.htm)

                code:  rain gauge
            type:  rain gauge
            description:  A device to measure the amount of liquid precipitation The definition of liquid precipitation is any form of water falling from the sky as rain. Rain gauge measures the amount of liquid precipitation.

            identifier:  (MD_Identifier)
                code:  turbidity sensor
            type:  turbidity sensor
            description:  Measures the turbidity of water Turbidity sensors measure the amount of light that is scattered by suspended solids in a liquid, such as water. When the concentration of total suspended solids (TSS) and total dissolved solids (TDS) in a liquid increase, the turbidity also increases.
