Title: Underway physical and meteorological data collected aboard NOAA Ship OREGON II in the Gulf of Mexico from 2008-04-09 to 2008-05-22 (NCEI Accession 0042686)
Abstract: This dataset contains real-time underway physical and meteorological data logged by the Scientific Computer System (SCS) aboard NOAA Ship Oregon II in the Gulf of Mexico and Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary from 2008-04-09 to 2008-05-22. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO) personnel aboard the ship submitted these data and associated metadata to the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). As part of the NOAA Shipboard Sensor Data Acquisition (NSSDAC) project, OMAO submits a standard suite of underway oceanographic and meteorological data collected during each cruise of a NOAA ship with SCS.
