Title: SAMOS project underway oceanographic and quality-controlled meteorological data collected aboard OCEANUS from 2010-08-01 to 2010-08-31 (NCEI Accession 0067183)
Abstract: The data logging system on OCEANUS recorded underway oceanographic and meteorological data from various instruments while cruising in the Bay of Fundy, Gulf of Mexico and North Atlantic Ocean from 2010-08-01 to 2010-08-31. 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 four versions of the data to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI): the original data e-mailed by the data logging system, first-level (automatically and merged) QCed data, and second-level (visually) QCed data. This dataset contains all these data.
