Title: Physical and meteorological delayed-mode full-resolution data from the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) array in the Equatorial Pacific from 2013-03-26 to 2014-11-20 (NCEI Accession 0139412)
Abstract: The Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) array of moored buoys spans the tropical Pacific. Moorings within the array measure surface meteorological and upper-ocean parameters. This dataset contains full-resolution, delayed-mode data, which the National Buoy Data Center processed and submitted to NCEI in netCDF-formatted files.
