Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from CAPE FLORIDA and BLUE FIN in the North American Coastline-South from 1985-03-28 to 1985-05-22 (NCEI Accession 8900150)

These data are the results of the Spring Removal Experiment (SPREX) collected from March 28, 1985 to May 22, 1985. Data consists of high resolution CTD data, in shallow waters off coastal Georgia, with rosette bottle (Niskin) collections at top and bottom. Samples were analyzed for PO4, NO2, NO3, SI, Chl-A and phaeopigments. The CTD data were extracted and processed into F022 format (files nos. TV2989-TV2992). The data were submitted by Dr. Larry P. Atkinson and Skidaway Institute of Oceanography, Savannah GA.

Supplemental Information
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.
