Title: Chemical, physical, phytoplankton biomass, and other data were collected using plankton net as part of the California Cooperative Fisheries Investigation (CALCOFI) project, from 1971-06-19 to 1977-06-15 (NCEI Accession 8300195)
Abstract: Chlorophyll a and Phaeophytin A data collected by various ships in Monterey Bay, California. The data were collected from June 19, 1971 to June 15, 1977 as part of California Cooperative Fisheries Investigations (CALCOFI) project. The original data were recorded in ASCII and submitted on an unlabeled 9-track 1600 BPI magnetic tape. The documentation includes a record format description and title pages of technical reports associated with this investigation. Principal Investigator was Dr. Mary Silver. The study was carried out by University of California at Santa Cruz, Monterey Bay, California.

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, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
