Thanks, Brooke.  The URL link works fine for me now.
Ok, not much left for me to do now.  We hope to get this revision
published soon.
Thank you!
Clint

Hi Clint, 

Thank you for checking, we were waiting to publish the metadata record until we received 
an update from you saying the updates had been made. I just went ahead and published the 
record. Thank you!

Best,
Brooke

Hi, Brooke.
I am working on the revision for Accession 0161168.  As I was working
my way through this revision, I noticed that the URL for the Inport
record (https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inport/item/36820) has not been
published.  When I try to access this page, I receive the message "The
Catalog Item you requested (ID: 36820) cannot be retrieved."  Just
wanted to draw this to your attention.

We expect to get this revision published fairly soon.
Thank you,
Clint

Package Description
Update to Title:
National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Shallow Water
Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) Profiles for selected locations
across the Mariana Archipelago from 2014-03-24 to 2014-05-05
Update Abstract:
The data described here result from near-shore shallow water
Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) casts conducted at select sites
around the Mariana Archipelago as part of the ongoing National Coral
Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). These surveys were conducted by the
NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), Ecosystem
Sciences Division (ESD; formerly the Coral Reef Ecosystem Division)
during ESD-led NCRMP missions to CNMI (Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands) in 2014. The CTD casts provide vertical profiles
(30-m max depth, downcast only) of water column conductivity,
temperature, and pressure (Sea-Bird Electronics, SBE19-plus), with
calculated depth, salinity, and water density. The CTD was deployed
from a small boat using a hand line and held just under the surface
for 1 minute to cycle water through the instrument and tubing.
Afterward, data were collected by lowering the CTD in profiling mode
at an even pace (descent rate ~0.5 to 0.75 meters per second) to a
maximum depth of 30 m. Data processing was performed using Sea-Bird
Scientific SBE Data Processing Software and the R package "oce".

Update Purpose:
CTD casts are conducted to characterize the spatial structure of the
physical and chemical properties of the ocean environment influencing
the living coral reef resources observed during NOAA National Coral
Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP) missions. The NOAA National Coral Reef
Monitoring Program (NCRMP) details a long-term, ecosystem-scale
approach for assessing coral reef climate, fish, benthic, and
socioeconomic variables in a consistent and integrated manner. NCRMP
coordinates various NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP)
biological, physical, and human dimensions activities into a cohesive
NOAA-wide effort. Through the implementation of NCRMP, NOAA is able to
clearly and concisely communicate results of national-scale monitoring
to national, state, and territorial policy makers, resource managers,
and the public on a periodic basis. NCRMP provides a framework for
conducting sustained observations of biological, climate, and
socioeconomic indicators at 10 priority coral reefs across the U.S.
and its territories. This integrated approach consolidates monitoring
of coral reefs under a uniform method in the Pacific, Atlantic,
Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico. NCRMP is funded by the CRCP and the
NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP), and supported by NOAA
Fisheries, NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS),
NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic & Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), NOAA
Coral Reef Watch, and many other partners. The Pacific Islands
Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD) at
NOAA Fisheries leads in-situ NCRMP climate monitoring in the U.S.
Pacific Islands Region (formerly under the Pacific Reef Assessment and
Monitoring Program [RAMP]). The climate component of NCRMP in the
Pacific provides a comprehensive view of climate change impacts on
coral reef ecosystems and helps identify areas of resilience and
vulnerability. The key indicators used to identify and monitor
climate-driven trends include 1) thermal stress caused by changes in
sea temperature, 2) ocean acidification resulting from changes in
carbonate chemistry, and 3) associated ecological impacts on carbonate
accretion rates, erosion, and benthic community structure. ESD
scientists work closely with CRCP and partners during annual Pacific
NCRMP missions to deploy oceanographic (subsurface temperature
recorders) and ecological (calcification accretion units [CAUs] and
bioerosion monitoring units [BMUs]) instruments at fixed sites in the
Pacific Ocean and conduct CTD casts and water sampling to evaluate
coral reef environments. The in-situ data and satellite-based
observations are also used in modeling efforts. Innovative analysis
techniques are used to develop products that provide scientists,
managers, decision makers and the public a better understanding of a
region's resources and how they are changing over time.

Update Dataset Author List:
“Ecosystem Sciences Division; Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center”
(Question: If we were CREP in 2014 during collection does this stay
CREP or does it update now to ESD because we are currently known as
ESD? If this should reflect the program name during the time of
collection then please ignore this dataset author list update and keep
it as CREP).
