Temperature and salinity profiles from CTD casts from NOAA Ship RAINIER in the Gulf of Alaska from 1992-06-10 to 1992-08-02 (NCEI Accession 9200243)
The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) data were collected in Gulf of Alaska. Data was collected from NOAA Ship RAINIER. The data was collected over a period spanning from June 10, 1992 and August 2, 1992. Data was submitted in a diskettes by Dr. Gunnar Roden, National Ocean Service, Seattle, WA. Data has been processed and is also available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. F022 High-resolution CTD data is collected from high resolution (conductivity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1 m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity and density at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals.

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. Points of contact for this dataset include: Contact info: Agency: US DOC; NOAA; NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE - SEATTLE PI: N/A Address: address: 7600 SAND POINT WAY, NE city: SEATTLE state: WA postal: 98115 country: UNITED STATES In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number. |
