Frank:

I have placed on the NODC anonymous ftp site, a total of 8 .zip files, when opened,
contain 16 files of coastal directional wave rider buoy, averaged wave period and sea
surface temperatures, time series data sets, 1995 to mid 2002 (see info below).  Time
series measurements are half hourly for all data sets.
File headers within each file describe the buoy ID, location, station activity
log and parameters format.  The data were received courtesy of the CDIP/SCRIPPS
web server.  These are "coastal ocean" data sets.
