Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from MONOWAI, MELBOURNE and other platforms from 1994-01-24 to 1994-12-16 (NODC Accession 9500121)
Abstract: The water depth and temperature data was collected as part of Global Temperature- Salinity Pilot Project (GTSPP) from over a dozen ships by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization and Australian Oceanographic Data Center, Potts point, New South Wales, Australia. The data was collected from January 24, 1994 to December 16, 1994. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT) data file was submitted by Mr. Andrew L. Walsh in GTSPP format RAN/RNZN via FTP.

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.
