Supplementary information: The publication listed below is related to the data collection and is available from the NOAA Central Library:

Ocean Weather Station 'P', North Pacific Ocean, December 11, 1965 to March 9, 1966. Ottawa, Canada : Canadian Oceanographic Data Centre, 1966. (NOAA Library catalog link, last accessed on June 3, 2009 at Ocean Weather Station 'P', North Pacific Ocean, December 11, 1965 to March 9, 1966).

AMS accession 7100957 references this data set. The following reports:

Crawford Cruise 27, May 18-28, 1959, Crawford Cruise 38, March 14-19, 1960; Crawford Cruise 35, December 15-20. 1959 and Chain Cruise 2, December 8-18, 1958.

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.
