Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from CARIBIA EXPRESS, PORT HARCOURT and other platforms from 1984-08-14 to 1986-12-04 (NCEI Accession 9200281)
Abstract: The water depth and temperature data were collected in north and south Atlantic as part of World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) from four different ships between August 14, 1986 and December 4, 1986. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT) data tape containing profiles were submitted by Dr. Reiner Onken, University of Kiel, Germany. The data have been converted and are now available on line in C125 Bathythermograph-XBT-Selected Depths file format of NODC.

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.
