Title: SAMOS project underway oceanographic and quality-controlled meteorological data collected aboard RV Nathaniel B. Palmer from 2011-09-10 to 2011-09-30 (NCEI Accession 0078530)
Abstract: The data logging system on RV Nathaniel B. Palmer recorded underway oceanographic and meteorological data from various instruments while cruising in the South Atlantic Ocean from 2011-09-10 to 2011-09-30. During this period, as part of the Shipboard Automated Meteorological and Oceanographic System (SAMOS) project, the data logging system sent the data daily via e-mail to Florida State University (FSU), where the Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies (COAPS) quality-controlled (QCed) the meteorological data. COAPS submitted four versions of the data to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI): the original data e-mailed by the data logging system, first-level (automatically and merged) QCed data, and second-level (visually) QCed data. This dataset contains all these data.
