Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from CAP SAINT PAUL, SEAS EIFFEL and other platforms in the TOGA Area - Pacific from 1985-04-01 to 1991-02-21 (NODC Accession 9100117)
Abstract: The water depth and temperature data was collected using multiple ships as part of Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) project from TOGA Area - Pacific (30 N to 30 S) from April 1, 1985 to February 21, 1991. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT and SBT) data containing 1063 observations was submitted in a tape by Jean-Paul Rebert of Institut Francais de Recherche pour l'Exploitation de la Mer (IFREMER)-Brest, Plouzane, France. The data has been converted and is now available on line in C116-Bathythermograph-XBT, C125-Bathythermograph-XBT-Selected Depths and C128-Bathythermograph-MBT file formats of NODC.

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.
