Title: Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from UNKNOWN PLATFORMS OF AUSTRALIA in the South Atlantic Ocean from 1972-02-01 to 1977-11-15 (NCEI Accession 9000036)
Abstract: This dataset contains ocean station and current data collected by Water & Sewerage Board in South Atlantic Ocean and submitted by Mr. K.H.J. Robin. The physical oceanographic data was collected offshore from Sydney, Australia from February 1972 to November 1977 by Metropolitan Environmental Science and Engineering. This study was designed to determine seasonal, wind and tidal effects on current patterns and density structure. In addition, the following parameters were measured: dissolved oxygen, hydrogen ion concentration, nutrient concentration, pH and water clarity.

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.
