Dear Bipana Sigdel:

Thank you for sending your data and metadata files to the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) via NCEI proxy, Madalyn Newman. NCEI received these data, Plankton species abundance data collected during R/V Bellows cruise BE-1204 in the DeSoto Canyon, Gulf of Mexico from 2011-09-29 to 2011-09-30, on 2018-07-11 19:25:55 via S2N.

After reviewing your submission package (metadata and data), I assigned your submission an NCEI Accession Number 0174500. This number is a tracking identifier for the NCEI Ocean Archive. Please reference this number when corresponding with NCEI about these data.

You can find information about these archived data at http://accession.nodc.noaa.gov/0174500.

After further reviewing your data, creating any additional representations of these data in a format that is more preservable in the NCEI Ocean Archive, and developing necessary tracking metadata, NCEI will publish these archived data online. You may access the archival copy of your original data via the link listed above.

In addition to creating an archival copy of these data, NCEI may include all or part of your data into one or more product databases, such as the World Ocean Database.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if you have additional data and documentation that you would like to archive with these data.

Thank you again for choosing to archive your data with the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI).
