PHYTOPLANKTON - WET WEIGHT and Other Data (NCEI Accession 9400037)
The Profiles of Chlorophyll data from NASA Goddard and Phytoplankton wet weight data in this accession was submitted by Mr. Charles R. McClain of US National Aeronautic and Space Administration, Washington DC. The data was collected in 15 different oceans and compiled in SeaWiFS calibration/validation historical pigment database. There are two versions of the data base. One contains approx. 180,000 records for depths of 0-10 meters. A second file contains approx. 330,000 records and includes all available depths provided by the individual investigators. Detailed Documentation is available for data format.

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, the NODC reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
