The Ocean Station Data; and Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) Bottle data from 25 casts were collected using ship R/V Weatherbird II during cruises # 791-813. The data was collected from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995 in Bremuda, NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) by Bermuda Biological Station for Research, Inc. and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA. The Station S data was received by NODC via internet from George Heimerdinger.

Temperature and salinity profiles were collected from CTD and XBT casts from multiple ships from 15 August 1996 to 09 April 1997. Data were collected in the Antarctic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, and other locations as part of the Master Oceanographic Observation Data Set (MOODS).

Bathythermograph (XBT), water depth and other station data from unknown platforms and nine different ships collected from NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) from June 3, 1975 to November 20, 1984. Data was collected by Helgoland Biological Stations; University of Kiel, Kiel; Deutsches Hydrographische Institut, Hamburg; German Federal Research Center for Fisheries, Hamburg and Deutsches Ozeanographisches Datenzentrum, Hamburg. The data was submitted by Mr. C. Brockmann from Deutsches Ozeanographisches Datazentrum on November 13, 1985. The data is available in C116 format of NODC.

Temperature, salinity, and sound speed profiles were collected from CTD and XBT casts in the N Atlantic Ocean from 03 September 1982 to 04 October 1997. Data are a subset of the Master Oceanographic Observation Data Set (MOODS).

This dataset contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf Study (OCS) Benchmark Study in the North Atlantic which ran from February 10 to March 7, 1977 from R/V GYRE. These ocean station data were submitted by Energy Resources Co., Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract # AA550-CT6-51. This data contains eleven files with different file types and therefore different reference numbers. The following is a description of the files and a listing of the reference numbers: file 1 labeled L00998, L130 contains nutrient, temp, salinity and do data; file 2 labeled L00965, L513 contains %silt, %clay, %grain size, %carbon and %nitrogen in sediments data; files 3 and 4 labeled L00963, L521 contains taxonomic code, counts and egg/larvae data; file 5 labeled L00966, L134 contains metals in zooplankton, water, sediment and macrobenthos data; file 6 labeled L00967, L131 contains lipids, hydrocarbons in water, zooplankton, macrobenthos, sediment and surface film data; file 7,8,9 labeled L00968 contain macrobenthic taxonomic codes and counts.

This entry contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf Study (OCS) benchmark study in the North Atlantic which ran May 5 to September 2, 1977 from the R/V GILLISS. These data were submitted by Energy Resources Co., Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract # AA550-CT6-51. This data contains eleven files with different file types and so different reference numbers have been assigned. The following is a description of the files and a listing of the reference numbers: file 1 labelled L01000, L130 contains nutrients, sal, temp and do data; file 2 labelled L00984, L513 contains %silt, %clay, %grain size, %carbon and %nitrogen in sediments; file 3,4 labelled L00985, L521 contains taxonomic code, counts and egg/larvae; file 5 labelled L00986, L134 contains metals in zooplankton, water, sediment and macrobenthos; file 6 labelled L00987, L131 contains lipids, hydrocarbons in water, zooplankton, macrobenthos, sediment and surface film and; file 7,8,9 labelled L00988, L504 contains macrobenthic taxonomic codes and counts.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) as part of Ocean Margins Program. Data was collected from Ship CAPE HATTERAS. The data was collected over a period spanning from July 14-18, 1993. Two files of CTD data was submitted by Nelson D. Sherry, Biology Department, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR via FTP.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected. R/V Oceanus was used to collect data. The data was collected from 76 stations over one month period spanning from June 15, 1983 to July 11, 1983 in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W). Data was submitted by Dr. Nelson Hogg of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), Woods Hole, MA in a tape. The originator's data has been processed by NODC and is currently available in F022-CTD Hi resolution file format.

This entry contains the results from the Outer Continental Shelf study (OCS) benchmark study in the North Atlantic which ran during the month of May 77 from the R/V GYRE. These data were submitted by Energy Resources Co., Inc. in fulfillment of BLM contract #AA550-CT6-51. This tape contains eleven files with different file types and therefore different reference numbers. A description of the files and a listing of the reference numbers is available. Documentation describes methods of observation and instruments used, units in which measurements are taken, including analytical methods and laboratory procedures used to analyze data.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W). Data was collected from Ship ENDEAVOR cruise 214. The data was collected over a period spanning from June 24, 1990 to July 7, 1990. Data was submitted in a tape by Dr. Robert Pickart, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA. Data has been processed and is available in F022-CTD-Hi Resolution file format of NODC. F022 High-resolution CTD data is collected from high resolution (conductivity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1 m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t) and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals.
