Title: AIR PRESSURE and Other Data from MULTIPLE SHIPS From North Pacific Ocean from 1992-07-01 to 1992-12-31 (NCEI Accession 9300026)
Abstract: The accession contains bathythermograph physical profile data in the TESAC format collected in North Pacific Ocean. TESAC format parameters include country code, depth, temperature, and salinity. This contains six month data that was collected between July-December 1992 using multiple ships. Data was collected as part of Integrated Global Ocean Service System (IGOSS). Originator's data was received in a tape from Dr. Osamu Yamada of Japanese Hydrographic Office, Japan. The documentation contains originator's tape specifications and the record format. The data on magnetic disk has been copied to current NODC data storage 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.
