        abstract:  This dataset contains 35 files of data collected as part of Shipboard Environmental data Acquisition System (SEAS) III and SEAS IV program. The cruises were conducted using 25 different ships. The bathythermograph (XBT) data was collected between December 17, 1993 and June 1, 1995. The XBT data was sent from the cruise ships to the National Ocean Service (NOS), Rockville, MD via telecommunication. This data was received at NODC via Chris Noe of NOS. Accompanying format information was provided by Darren Wright.
        purpose:  This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.

Updated information from ICES for the vessel SEDCO/BP 471 from LIBERIA Code : 54SD Name : SEDCO/BP 471 Flag : LIBERIA - LR (ISO Country Code) Call Sign : D5BC Platform Class : Research vessel IMO : 7423081 Commissioned Date : 1985 Decommissioned Date : 1996 Current Length : 143 Built : 1978 Notes : Vessel converted for scientific research in January 1985 and began working for the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP). Was renamed JOIDES Resolution in 1996 Information Source : Captain of the JOIDES Resolution (Person) Same Vessels Info - JOIDES Resolution General Comments: From Leslie Peart at Deep Earth Academy [deepearthacademy@oceanleadership.org]. Here are the answers to your questions straight from Captain Alex Simpson, who's aboard [JOIDES Resolution] right now. 1. The Science Community affectionately called the SEDCO BP/471 "JOIDES Resolution" soon after sailing from Pascagoula where the science conversion was done back in 1985. However, the vessel did not officially change her name till 1996. 2. I can confirm that IMO No.742308 is correct 3. Call sign is D5BC

            description:  ICES request for the vessel Skogafoss from ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA. NOTE: Platform code AGSK for SKOGAFOSS has been deprecated because it represents multiple hulls. US NODC and ICES no longer attribute data to platform identifier AGSK. Use AGSA for data collected before 1996 by Antigua and Barbuda platform SKOGAFOSS, call sign V2GR. Use AGSB for data collected from 1988 until August 1998 by Antigua and Barbuda platform SKOGAFOSS, call sign V2QT. Use AGSC for data collected from September 2000 until July 2007 by Antigua and Barbuda platform SKOGAFOSS, call sign V2XM. Do not use AGSK to identify a platform for any data collection from any time.
