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, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.

RRS Frederick Russell
Updated information from ICES added on 2012-03-05.
Code : 74GG

Flag : UNITED KINGDOM - GB (ISO Country Code)
Title : RRS
Platform Class : Research vessel
IMO : 7347938

*Additional Information Sources:*
None found .
*Same Vessels Info:*
*74LG* - LOUGH FOYLE
*General Comments:*
There was only one RRS Frederick Russell. She was a NERC research vessel, which meant that cruises could be run on her by any NERC laboratory or UK university department. So the labels on the ROSCOPs indicate who organised the cruise, not who operated the ship. She was always operated by NERC Research Vessel Services based in Barry. She was then transferred to the organisation then known as Department of Agriculture for Northern Ireland (DANI) and renamed Lough Foyle, so they are the both the same ship.
