Title: ANALYSES - ANNUAL SUMMARIES and Other Data from SATELLITE From World-Wide Distribution from 1990-07-01 to 1990-12-31 (NCEI Accession 9100024)
Abstract: Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) blended Sea Surface Temperatures (SST) data for July-December 1990 was provided by Mr. William D. Newell, from the Ocean Products Center. SST were collected from multiple ships and buoys (in situ) and from satellites (POLAR AVHRR). Blended SST's eliminate biases or large scale trends in the satellite data by using in situ data as anchor points. Some of the data are ASCII, others in EBC DIC mode. Data can be found on tape A01356 W14226.

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.
