Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Chemical, physical, and other data collected in the coastal waters of California as part of the California Cooperative Fisheries Investigation (CalCOFI) project since 1949

Preview graphic

This collection includes data collected from multiple platforms in the coastal waters of California over many years, as part of the California Cooperative Fisheries Investigation (CalCOFI) project. CalCOFI has been observing the California Current since 1949 to understand and predict the effects of climate change on marine ecosystems.

This collection includes physical measurements and observations of temperature, conductivity, pressure, salinity, density, sound velocity, sigma-t, depth, humidity, photosynthetic active radiation (PAR), light transmission, turbidity, solids, water color, tide, current, sea, swell, wave, weather, wind, cloud, chemical measurements and observations of alkalinity, ammonia (NH3), ammonium (NH4), nitrate, nitrite, nitrogen, carbon, oxygen, pH, phosphate, phosphorus, polychlorinated biphenyls, silicate, urea, biological measurements and observations of chlorophyll, productivity, fluorescence, phaeophytin, phaeopigment, phytoplankton, zooplankton, as well as fishery surveys and other data.

Publication Dates	publication: 2001-04-16 revision: 2025-05-29 creation: 1969
Data Presentation Form	Digital table - digital representation of facts or figures systematically displayed, especially in columns
Dataset Progress Status	Complete - production of the data has been completed Historical archive - data has been stored in an offline storage facility
Data Update Frequency	As needed
Supplemental Information	Note: Preliminary metadata for this dataset was 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 datasets on an ongoing basis.
Purpose	To study the marine environment off the coast of California, the management of its living resources, and monitoring the indicators of El Niño and climate change.
Use Limitations	accessLevel: public Distribution liability: NOAA and NCEI make no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty. NOAA and NCEI cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in these data. If appropriate, NCEI can only certify that the data it distributes are an authentic copy of the records that were accepted for inclusion in the NCEI archives.
