Frank:

I have placed on the NODC anonymous ftp site, a total of 3 .zip files
and one informational file (see below).  When opened, the .zip files
contain a total of 8 data files and their associated metadata entry 
forms.  In addition, a c-lab_doc.txt file was included.  This file
provides some brief project description information, precautionary 
notes about use of the data and the data files format layout, moored
buoy description and buoy location.
Note: (you'll see one additional clab_files_des.txt file on the server,
was sent by mistake, throw it out).
Data files include time series marine meteorology, sea temps. and 
fluorescence data.  These data were received courtesy of Dr. Dave
Eslinger, NOAA - Coastal Services Center (formerly with Univ. of
Alaska/IMS).  These are "coastal ocean" data sets.
