Title: Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from USCGC GLACIER from 1978-01-01 to 1980-03-31 (NCEI Accession 9000057)
Abstract: The Conductivity Temperature and Depth (CTD) data was collected by Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) between January 1978 and March 1980. The data CTD data from International Weddell Sea Oceanographic Expedition (1968-1970) (IWSOE) was submitted by Dr. Theodore Foster in Binary format.

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.
