Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from unknown platforms in the TOGA Area - Pacific from 1992-02-28 to 1995-03-15 (NODC Accession 9500136)
Abstract: The water depth and temperature data were collected in TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) as part of Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) project between February 28, 1992 and March 15, 1995. 16 files of originator's bathythermograph (XBT) ORSTOM data containing 2,139 profiles were submitted via FTP by Ms. Marie Claire Fabri, Institut Français de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la MER (IFREMER), Plouzane, France to Melanie at 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, the NODC reviews metadata for all
accessions on an ongoing basis.
