Title: WATER DEPTH and Other Data from REASONER From Arabian Sea from 19900806 to 19900831 (Accession No. - 9000242)
Abstract: The data in this accession was collected in Arabian Sea from ship
Reasoner between August 6, 1990 and August 31, 1990. The real time data
of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was
recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. Thirty nine stripcharts and
radio logs were submitted to NODC. The XBT data from these stripcharts
have been digitized and is present in the current NODC data storage
system in C116 file 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, the NODC reviews metadata for all
accessions on an ongoing basis.
