Physical, chemical, and biological data from the THOMAS WASHINGTON on the TASADAY Expedition, Legs I, II, III, and IV, in the Pacific and Indian Oceans from 1973-06-05 to 1973-09-06

Nutrient and pigment (chlorophyll) data received by NODC's Ocean Climate Laboratory. These data were collected as part of the Scripps TASADAY expedition in the Pacific and Indian Oceans during 1973-1974. Leg I of the TASADAY expedition had the dual purpose of investigating temperature and salinity of the water column and studying aspects of the biological energy flow, nutrient cycles, and planktonic standing stocks. The principal study site for Leg I was in the central gyre region of the North Pacific and at the western edge of the California current. Leg II of the TASADAY expedition primarily continued the work of Leg I. Leg III TASADAY investigations were designed to provide data on the westward extent of the North Pacific central gyre region. Data were collected on Leg IV during late summer 1973 in the North Pacific.

Data parameters include: position, date, wind and wave data, clouds, temperature, salinity, pressure, oxygen, phosphate, silicate, nitrite (NO2), nitrate (NO3), Chlorophyll-a, phaeopigment, and Carbon-14 assimilation rates.

Species-specific patterns of Brown chromis fecal pellet consumption (coprophagy) by parrotfishes and surgeonfishes and fecal pellet nutritional composition in Bonaire from 2019-06-27 to 2019-09-11 (NCEI Accession 0242462)

In this study, we investigated the species-specific foraging rates of parrotfishes (tribe Scarini within the Labridae) and surgeonfishes (Acanthuridae) on Brown Chromis (Chromis multilineata) fecal pellets compared to other major dietary items and the nutritional value of these fecal pellets. We conducted this study on the Caribbean island of Bonaire in summer of 2019. The associated datasets include: (1) surveys of the density of parrotfishes, surgeonfishes, and Brown Chromis (both a raw data file and transect-level summary), (2) behavioral observations of coprophagy by parrotfishes and surgeonfishes, (3) Chromis multilineata fecal pellet observations to record the frequency at which they are consumed and coprophagous fish taxa, (4) observations of the defecation rate of Chromis multilineata individuals, and (5) analysis of the nutritional content of Chromis multilineata fecal pellets. Additionally, we conducted a literature search and compiled a summary of the nutritional quality of various red, green, and brown algae, epilithic and endolithic algae matrices, and cyanobacteria to compare the nutritional quality of these food sources to the observed values for Chromis multilineata fecal pellets.

Video products collected during the Russian-American Long Term Census of the Arctic 2009 (RUSALCA2009L1) expedition on NOAA Ship Ferrel from 2009-08-22 to 2009-08-31

Due to the alarming trend in the reduction of Arctic sea ice cover, particularly in the Chukchi Sea located between the Russian Federation (Chukotka) and the United States (Alaska) and northwards into the High Arctic, the Pacific Arctic is arguably the fastest changing region in the world's fastest changing ocean. Unfortunately, without baseline information about Pacific Arctic oceanographic and ecosystem conditions, accurately documenting the extent of fundamental ecosystem changes is impossible. The collection and integration of biological, physical, and chemical information during the RUSALCA expeditions were designed to gather information where the summer ice edge is rapidly advancing northwards and these observations will provide a major step toward obtaining the foundation of information necessary for detecting ongoing and future change in this delicate ecosystem.

Bathythermograph (XBT) data from USNS Wilkes in the Alboran Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and North Atlantic Ocean from 1974-01-10 to 1974-03-02 (NCEI Accession 7400315)

This dataset includes bathythermograph (XBT) data from USNS Wilkes in the Alboran Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and North Atlantic Ocean from 1974-01-10 to 1974-03-02.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (XBT) (C116) 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.

Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification.  In support of the coastal monitoring and research objectives of the NOAA Ocean Acidification Program (OAP), the South Florida Project Cruises (SFP) are utilized to collect water samples to measure surface water inorganic carbon and hydrographic parameters including nutrients. Samples are collected from 34 stations on a bi-monthly basis to monitor the outflow of the Shark River Slough (SRS) and red tide in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico.  Water samples are sent to and analyzed by scientists at the Atlantic Oceanographic & Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) for dissolved inorganic carbon, pH, total alkalinity and nutrient concentrations.  These data are used to observe the effects of the SRS on acidification in the coastal ocean.
