Title: Bio-optical Profile data collected from THOMAS G. THOMPSON in the TOGA area - Pacific Ocean (30 N to 30 S) for the US JGOFS EqPac project from 1992-02-04 to 1992-09-13 (NCEI Accession 9700034)
Abstract: Percent (0.1%) light depths, surface irradiance, downwelled irradiance, upwelled irradiance, water temperature, chlorophyll_a fluorescence and other data were collected using transmissometer casts from the THOMAS G. THOMPSON in the TOGA area of Pacific Ocean. Data were submitted by Dr. Charles Trees of University of California in San Diego (UCSD) with support from the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study / Equatorial Pacific Basin Study.

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.
