Title: SAMOS project underway oceanographic and quality-controlled meteorological data collected aboard RV Atlantic Explorer from 2010-08-04 to 2010-08-23 (NCEI Accession 0100886)
Abstract: The data logging system on RV Atlantic Explorer recorded underway oceanographic and meteorological data from various instruments while cruising in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2010-08-04 to 2010-08-23. During this period, as part of the Shipboard Automated Meteorological and Oceanographic System (SAMOS) project, the data logging system sent the data daily via e-mail to Florida State University (FSU), where the Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies (COAPS) quality-controlled (QCed) the meteorological data. COAPS submitted three versions of the data to the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC): the original data e-mailed by the data logging system and first-level (automatically and merged) QCed data. This dataset contains all these data.
