Frank:

I have placed on the NODC anonymous ftp site, a total of 4 .zip files, when opened, contain a total of 29 files of SeaCat CTD data sets with associated variables, their associated metadata entry forms, 6 Neil Brown or Aanderra current meters with associated variables and their

metadata entry forms (see below). These are Fisheries Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (FOCI) project data sets, SE Bering Sea moorings, 1995 to early 1998 files. Data were received

courtesy of the NOAA/PMEL - Coastal and Arctic division. These are "coastal ocean" data sets.
