        Title: Deep Profiles of Temperature, Salinity, Oxygen Saturation, and Flourescence
Data from 12 Select R/V Oscar Elton Sette Cruises in the Northwest 
Hawaiian Islands 2003-2007
    Description:
      Abstract: The Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, part of the National Marine 
Fisheries Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 
conducted cruises in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands on the R/V Oscar Elton 
Sette during 2003-2007.  12 select cruises are included in this batch.  
Finalized data include the profiles of temperature, salinity, oxygen saturation, 
and fluorescense.  Most hydrocast stations are near atolls and islands.  These 
are referred to as deep profiles and mostly reach to 500 m.
      Purpose: Understand the physical characteristics for better interpretation
of ecosystem dynamics
