Title: WATER DEPTH and Other Data from GYRE and Other Platforms From North Atlantic Ocean from 19770505 to 19770525 (NODC Accession 7800460)
Abstract: This entry contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf study
(OCS) benchmark study in the North Atlantic which ran during the month
of May 77 from the R/V GYRE. These data were submitted by Energy
Resources Co.,Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract #AA550-CT6-51. This
tape contains eleven files with different file types and therefore
different reference numbers. A description of the files and a listing of
the reference numbers is available. Documentaion describes methods of
observation and instruments used, units in which measurements are taken,
including analytical methods and laboratory procedures used to analyze
data.

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, the NODC reviews metadata for all
accessions on an ongoing basis.
