Title: CTD data collected from NOAA Ship RESEARCHER in the Gulf of Mexico from 25 May 1960 to 05 May 1980 (NODC Accession 8800022)
Abstract: These files contain four sets of STD data in C100 or Station data format. These data were submitted by Dr. Donald Atwood at NOAA/AOML/OCD. Some of the data may already be archived and may have high salinities. One set of data were collected from May 1964 to May 1972 as part of the OTEC project. The second set of data were collected from September to October 1979 as part of the IXTOC project. The third set of data were collected from November to December 1979 as part of the ROME I project. The fourth set of data were collected in the Gulf of Mexico as part of the ROME II projects. These data were collected from April-May 1988.

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.
