Title: Cloud amount/frequency, NITRATE and other data from USCGC NORTHWIND, WECOMA and other platforms in the NE Pacific from 1982-02-26 to 1983-04-05 (NCEI Accession 8300050)
Abstract: Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD) and other data from multiple ships and other platforms were collected from NE Pacific (limit-180) from February 26, 1982 to April 5, 1983. The data was collected as part of Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment and submitted by Oregon State University. The bathythermograph XBT data is in C116 format of NODC while the CTD hi resolution data is in F022 format.

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, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
