Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from HMNZS WAIKATO, FLINDERS and other platforms from 1986-04-29 to 1993-11-15 (NCEI Accession 9400007)
Abstract: The data in this accession were collected from ships HMAS COOK, HMAS FLINDERS, HMNZS SOUTHLAND, HMNZS CANTERBURY, HMNZS WAIKATO, and WELLINGTON between April 29, 1986 and November 15, 1993. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the Australian Oceanographic Data Center. Radio logs are forms that contain time, weather latitude/longitude, vessel id, ship id, etc. These are radioed every two hours to some military center. One line per strip chart. Some strip charts have time /date /ship id /latitude /longitude annotated on the strip chart. One box of stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC by Ms. Edwina Tanner.

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.
