Bathythermograph (MBT) data from J. R. PERRY in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1962-10-01 to 1962-10-31 (NCEI Accession 6200692)

This dataset includes bathythermograph (MBT) data from J. R. PERRY in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1962-10-01 to 1962-10-31.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (MBT) (C128) format.

The C128 format is used for temperature-depth profile data obtained using the mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) instrument. The maximum depth of MBT observations is approximately 285 m. Therefore, MBT data are useful only in studying the thermal structure of the upper layers of the ocean. Cruise information, date, position, and time are reported for each observation. The data record comprises pairs of temperature-depth values. Temperature data in this file are recorded at uniform 5 m depth intervals.

Bahia Las Minas, Panama Oil Spill Assessment, 1986-1991 (NCEI Accession 9400033)

In April 1986 a major oil spill from a ruptured storage tank at a local refinery just east of the Caribbean entrance to the Panama Canal polluted an area of coral reefs, mangrove forests, and grassbeds along the Caribbean coast of the Republic of Panama. The area affected included a biological reserve of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) where baseline biological and environmental data had been collected for the previous 15 years.  Shortly after the spill, a grant to study the effects of the spill was received from the Minerals Management Service of the United States Department of the Interior.  Data was then collected from May of 1986 to October of 1991 by the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute under Minerals Management Service contracts 14-12-0001-30355 and 14-12-0001-30393. These data are filed under NCEI Accession #9400033. Results of the study were published as a technical report of the MMS (Keller and Jackson, 1993.) The project was divided into 8 subprojects to study the chemistry of the oil and 7 different environments affected by the spill, which included seagrass, coral, and mangrove communities. The study continued in part for an additional year under another grant, but that data is not included here, nor is data collected before the spill or data collected by the STRI ESP program.

Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity and other variables collected from discrete sample and profile observations during the R/V Marion Dufresne cruise OISO-05 (EXPOCODE 35MF20010103) in the Indian Ocean from 2000-07-19 to 2000-08-16 (NCEI Accession 0113576)

This dataset includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrients obtained during the R/V Marion Dufresne cruise OISO-05 (EXPOCODE 35MF20010103) in the Indian Ocean from 2000-07-19 to 2000-08-16. These data were collected by Claire Lo Monaco and Nicolas Metzl of Sorbonne University (SU) as part of the CLIVAR_OISO05 dataset. The International CLIVAR Global Ocean Carbon and Repeat Hydrography Program carries out a systematic and global re-occupation of select WOCE/JGOFS hydrographic sections to quantify changes in storage and transport of heat, fresh water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and related parameters.

NODC Standard Format Radio Message Bathythermograph (IBT/C110) Data (1972-1991) (NCEI Accession 9500109)

This collection contains temperature, depth, and other data collected using bathythermograph (BT/XBT) casts from numerous platforms in oceans and seas around the world from 1972-01-01 to 1991-01-01. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC Radio Message Bathythermograph (IBT/C110) data format.

The IBT (C110) format is used for telecommunicated bathythermograph (principally XBT) data transmitted by ships at sea over the Global Telecommunications System in the Integrated Global Ocean Services System (IGOSS) BATHY format. These data are accumulated and transmitted to NODC from two U.S. operational centers: the NOAA National Meteorological Center (NMC) and the U.S. Navy Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center (FNOC). Like XBT data, IBT data temperature values are recorded at inflection point depths. The BATHY radio message allows for a limited number of depth-temperature pairs to be reported, however. Therefore, compared to delayed-mode XBT data, IBT data present a coarser representation of ocean temperature profiles.

Bathythermograph (XBT aircraft) data from AIRCRAFT in the Philippine Sea from 1970-01-21 to 1970-01-24 (NCEI Accession 7300232)

This dataset includes bathythermograph (XBT aircraft) data from AIRCRAFT in the Philippine Sea from 1970-01-21 to 1970-01-24.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (XBT Aircraft) (C118) format.

The C116/C118 format contains temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Cruise information, position, date and time were reported for each observation. The data record was comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Unlike the MBT Data File, in which temperature values were recorded at uniform 5 m intervals, the XBT data files contained temperature values at non-uniform depths. These depths were recorded at the minimum number of points ("inflection points") required to accurately define the temperature curve. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. With special instruments, measurements can be obtained to 1830 m. Prior to July 1994, XBT data were routinely processed to one of these standard types. XBT data are now processed and loaded directly in to the NODC Ocean Profile Data Base (OPDB). Historic data from these two data types were loaded into the OPDB.

Plankton relative abundance from net samples and quantitative phytoplankton profiles data collected from R/V Bellows cruise BE-1311 in the Gulf of Mexico from 2012-12-12 to 2012-12-14 (NCEI Accession 0175137)

This dataset reports plankton species abundance from 13 sites off the Florida Panhandle Bight at the head of DeSoto Canyon aboard the R/V Bellows cruise BE-1311 on December 12-14, 2012. Plankton samples were collected using a net with mesh size of 25 micrometer and 0.5m diameter. This dataset reports the location, date, time, and length of tow for each sample. Plankton species were categorized as Ceratium spp., Dinophysis spp., other dinoflagellates, Chaetoceros/Bacteriastrum spp., Rhizosolenia/Guinardia spp, Eucampia/Hemiaulus spp., other chain-forming diatoms, Thalassionematales spp., Nitzschioid diatoms, other diatoms, Cyanobacteria (Trichodesmium spp.), and zooplankton. Abundances were recorded as individual counts as well as percentages of total sample. Quantitative phytoplankton profiles were taken specifically at 4 sites (P1, P3, P5, P7). For this, one-liter samples were collected from the surface and at different depths using Niskin bottles. Samples were filtered onto a 0.45 micrometer nitrocellulose filter and air-dried. A portion of each filter was mounted on an aluminum stub, sputter-coated, and examined with a JEOL JSM-6480 LV scanning electron microscope. Diatoms, coccolithophores, and armored dinoflagellates were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic category. The number of cells of each taxon in a field of view at a magnification of 1000x was recorded, with up to 700 fields-of-view examined, depending on the density of phytoplankton in the sample. The dataset includes the depth, the volume filtered, the number of cells of each taxon counted, and the calculated abundance of each taxon in cells per liter. Micrographs taken during the analysis are included.

National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Benthic complexity and urchin abundance at climate stations of the Hawaiian Archipelago

The datasets within this collection contain benthic complexity and urchin abundance data gathered as part of NOAA's ongoing National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). These data were gathered around the Hawaiian Archipelago as a part of NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) led missions. During these missions, the variables of benthic complexity and urchin abundance were tracked by swimmer/diver visual surveys at NCRMP climate stations. Three to four of these sites were chosen per island in a stratified random fashion so as to be roughly equally spaced, along the 15m contour, on hard bottom, and at least 1 km away from a river mouth or embayment. Once the sites were selected, multiple features of the coral reef environment were assessed, including: in-situ temperature (STR), seawater carbonate, net carbonate accretion (CAU), bioerosion (BMU), and cryptobiota diversity (ARMS). These data, however, are archived separately.
