WATER TEMPERATURE and Other Data from 1992-08-01 to 1993-09-30 (NCEI Accession 9600022)
The drifting buoy data from 28 drifting buoys in this accession was collected as part of Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) over a one year period between August 1, 1992 and September 30, 1993. Six French BODEGA drifters (SERPE-IESM, GUIDEL, 56, FRANCE TRISTAR) were deployed in August 1992 along the 165E meridian and in September 1992 along 156E. Seventeen additional BODEGA surface drifters were deployed in December 1992 and January/February 1993 from R/V Le Noroit along 156E, 4S-5N during the COARE Intensive Observation Period. Deployments were coordinated with a set of surface drifters that were released by Peter Niiler from the University of California, San Diego. Data was submitted by Yves Du Penhoat, Office de la Recherche Scientifique et Technique Outre Mer (ORSTOM), Noumea, New Caledonia via FTP. The data is accompanied by good description regarding format etc.

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.
