Title: Phytoplankton and other data from net and bottle casts from the ICE ISLANDS and other platforms as part of Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) from 1979-04-19 to 1980-06-23 (NODC Accession 8200100)
Abstract: Phytoplankton and other data were collected from net and bottle casts from the ICE ISLANDS and other platforms from 19 April 1979 to 23 June 1980. Data were collected as part of Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC F028 Phytoplankton format. Full format description is available from NODC at www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f028.html. An analog file for this accession is available from NODC user services.

The F028 format is used for data from the sampling and analysis of marine phytoplankton. Information on phytoplankton abundance, distribution, and productivity derived from these data support studies of marine populations and ecosystems. Data reported may include: position, date, and time of sampling; bottom depth and sampling depths; volume of water filtered; and concentration of cells, carbon concentration, wet and dry weight, and counts for each species reported. Comments may be relayed in a text record.

Supplementary 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.
