Title: WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from USS MCCLUSKY in the NE Pacific from 1994-07-09 to 1994-07-31 (NODC Accession 9400152)
Abstract: The data in this accession were collected in the NE Pacific (limit-180) from USS MCCLUSKY between July 9, 1994 and July 31, 1994. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. Radio logs are forms that contain time, weather latitude/longitude, vessel id, ship id, etc. These were radioed every two hours to a US Navy facility, with one line per strip chart. Some strip charts have time /date /ship id /latitude /longitude annotated on the strip chart. Fifty three stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC.

These profile strip charts have not yet been digitized. The analog charts may be reviewed by special arrangement with 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.
