Updates were received for this data set.  Updates may provide additional
files or replace obsolete files.  However, all of the files received prior
to this update are available in the preceding version of this accession.

The following informational files were created by NODC staff and
programmatically added to the about/ directory of this accession on
2013-03-16.  Standardized NODC location metadata were also updated based
on this additional information.

0000518_lonlat.txt -
  Contains sample locations for these data.  Each row contains the
  geographical position where these data were collected (longitude in the
  left column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees).  NODC may
  have corrected geographic positions that seemed to be in error when
  generating this file.  However, NODC did not change the original data
  files under the directory data/0-data/.

0000518_map.jpg -
  Station location map for these data.  Latitude and longitude data has
  been extracted from the data files in this accession.  These data have
  been used to create a map graphic.
