| Title: | Turbidity, SOLAR RADIATION - ATMOSPHERIC and other data from FIXED PLATFORM in the Gulf of Mexico from 1985-09-29 to 1987-12-29 (NODC Accession 8800149) |
| Abstract: | Data included in this accession consists of volume discharges from the Mississippi and Atchafalya rivers collected by Louisiana State University from September 1985 to December 1987 as part of the MMS/OCS development and potential coastal habitat alteration. The sampling area was coastal Louisiana. Parameters reported are salinity, temperature and water levels. This work was funded under MMS contract number 14-12-0001-30252. The documentation includes the data format and site identification.

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.
