Title: Zooplankton, chemical and other data from bottle and net cast from BOCAS DE CENIZA from the SE Pacific (limit-140) by the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission from 1966-02-18 to 1966-03-06 (NCEI Accession 9700121)
Abstract: Zooplankton, chemical and other data were collected from bottle and net cast from BOCAS DE CENIZA from the SE Pacific (limit-140). Data were collected by the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission from 18 February 1966 to 06 March 1966. Zooplankton data include displaced volume and taxonomic name. Chemical data include water temperature, salinity, oxygen, phosphate, silicate, nitrite, chlorophyll a, phaeopigments, and nitrate. Other data include air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, cloud amount, cloud type, wind speed, wind direction, and water transparency. Data are in a comma separated value (.csv) format. Additional funding for digitizing historic data were provided by the Global Ocean Data Archaeology and Rescue (GODAR) project.

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.
