The ocean serial data in this accession was collected in the Florida Straits and other seas using the ships GERDA, GREEN SEAS, and others. The data was collected between February 11, 1961 and August 29, 1966. The data has been processed and is available in C100-Ocean-Station-Data file format of NODC.

This dataset contains oceanographic data collected at a coastal station off Eden, New South Wales (lat. 37 deg. 04 min. S, long. 150 deg. 05 min. E) between December 1945 and December 1985. The stations were set up under the CSIRO coastal monitoring programme in the 1940s and were sampled approximately monthly for temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and nitrate. Data from 1954 onwards are stored on-line as part of the CMR hydrology archive in Hobart. Additional copies of the data are deposited with the NODC data archive (World Data Centre-A) in the U.S.A., and details of relevant data files can be viewed via their website by requesting the file inventory for this coastal station which is NODC platform code "09F6". Station details, plus printed versions of the data from 1945, have been published in CSIRO's "Oceanographical Station List" series.

The data in this accession were collected in 26 cruises conducted using multiple ships over a decade between August 1980 to July 1991. The real time data of water temperature at varying depth bathythermograph (XBT) was recorded in stripcharts by the US Navy. One box of analog stripcharts and radio logs were submitted to NODC by Mr. Paul Stevens of Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey CA. The XBT data from these stripcharts have been digitized and are present in the current NODC data storage system in C116 file format.

The data in this report were obtained in conjunction with a geophysical program undertaken in the North American Basin of the Atlantic Ocean. Observations on the cruise also included studies of the heat production in sediments by living organisms, organic matter in sea water, and collection of sediment samples. The main project concentrated on magnetic measurements, echo sounding traverse, and checking of seismic refraction equipment. The eight stations of the Halifax oceanographic section which is generally occupied seasonally for assessment of Scotian Shelf water conditions, were occupied on this cruise for the Atlantic Oceanographic Group.

The water depth and temperature data was collected from five ships by the Australian and New Zealand Navy. The data was collected between August 1, 1993 and March 29, 1995. The originator's 267 analog bathythermograph (XBT) traces were submitted by Mr. Andrew L. Walsh to NODC.

This dataset contains 89 sets of data collected as part of Shipboard Environmental data Acquisition System (SEAS) III program. The cruises were conducted using 24 different ships. The bathythermograph (XBT) data was collected between September 3, 1987 and June 11, 1992. The data was sent from the cruise ships to the National Ocean Service, Rockville, MD via telecommunication. This data is currently available in the C116 file format of NODC.

This dataset contains oceanographic data collected at a coastal transect off Bermagui, New South Wales (lat. 36 deg. S, long. 150 deg. E approx.) between January 1958 and Huly 1960. The stations were set up under the CSIRO coastal monitoring programme in the 1950s and were sampled approximately monthly for temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and nitrate. The data are stored on-line as part of the CMR hydrology archive in Hobart. Additional copies of the data are deposited with the NODC data archive (World Data Centre-A) in the U.S.A., and details of relevant data files can be viewed via their website by requesting the file inventory for this coastal station which is NODC platform code "09F7".

The ocean station data was submitted by Deutsches Ozeanographisches Datenzentrum (German Oceanographic data center) located in Hamburg, Germany. Data contains measurements of water depth and other parameters used to collect information using bottle, Secchi disks and meteorological sensors. Original data submitted on tape has been converted into current NODC data storage format.

The accession contains Profile Station Data Received from the British Hydrographic Office collected between November 3, 1989 to December 26, 1994 as Part of Data-Center-to-Data-Center Exchange. The data was collected using ships Charles Darwin, Discovery, James Clark Ross, and Ocean Weather Station l. 887 CTD (Conductivity, Temperature and Depth) observations and 1707 XBT (Bathythermograph) drops were submitted by Peter G.B. Jones, Ministry of Defence, UK. Data was received by NODC via Robert Gelfeld.

This dataset contains 14 sets of data collected as part of Shipboard Environmental data Acquisition System (SEAS) III program. The cruises were conducted using 10 different ships. The bathythermograph (XBT) data was collected between September 1, 1987 and April 10, 1992. The data was sent from the cruise ships to the National Ocean Service, Rockville, MD via telecommunication. This data is currently available in the C116 file format of NODC.
