| Title: | PRESSURE - WATER and Other Data from LE NOROIT From TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) from 1992-12-01 to 1993-03-31 (NCEI Accession 9600049) |
| Abstract: | The accession contains Sea Surface data collected in TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) as part of Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) and Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) International Project. The data was collected from ship LE NOROIT between December 1, 1992 and March 31, 1993. The Office de la Recherche Scientifique et Technique Outre Mer (ORSTOM) SURTROPAC group in Noumea, New Caledonia, together with scientists from the UK and other countries, conducted surface meteorological observations on board the French research vessel during the TOGA COARE Intensive Observing Period (IOP). From 1 December 1992 to 2 March 1993, 18 temperature, salinity, and current sections were made from 5S to 5N along the 156E meridian and two sections in the Coral Sea from 20S,163E to 6S,156E. Good format description accompanies the data. Data was submitted by C. Henin, ORSTOM, New Caledonia to NODC. Data can be accessed via anonymous FTP from tcdm.coare.ucar.edu in subdirectory pub/COARE_DATA/air_sea_fluxes/Noroit_surface. |

| 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.
