Title: PRESSURE - WATER and Other Data from SIR WILFRED LAURIER and Other Platforms from 1998-02-19 to 1998-10-08 (NCEI Accession 9900134)
Abstract: Temperature, salinity, and sigma-theta profiles were collected from CTD casts in the Bering Sea from the Sir Wilfred Laurier and other platforms from 19 February 1998 to 08 October 1998. Data were collected as part of Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (FOCI) to examine the physical and biological factors that affect the walleye pollock fishery in Alaska. Data are in Ascii text files formatted in accordance with NODC F015.

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.
