***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0002039 Created on: 2017-12-13 16:57:24 -0000 By: John Relph, National Oceanographic Data Center Source: Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) via NODC's National Coastal Development Center (NCDDC) as part of the National Marine Sanctuary Program's West Coast Observation System (WCOS). Version: 3.3 Updates received on: 2012-05-16 Actions: NODC received new data files from PISCO for the year 2010. A major revision of this accession was created. The new files and FGDC XML metadata files collected in /nodc/data/NMSP-WCOS/ were copied to the data/0-data/ directory of this accession. NCEI staff used the Unidata ncdump program to create Common Data form Language (CDL) files from netCDF, which were then copied into the data/1-data/ directory. Files: about/ This directory contains files generated by NCEI with ancillary information about the data submission. 0002039_lonlat.txt - Mooring locations for these data. Each row contains the geographical position for a mooring (longitude in the left column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees). 0002039_map.jpg - Mooring location map for these data. 0002039_preview.jpg - Pictorial map of locations of west coast National Marine Sanctuaries and mooring locations. WCOS_file_name_scheme.pdf - File naming conventions for data and metadata files. WCOS_project_document_phaseI_20060317.pdf - Documentation of the data management practice for the WCOS. data/0-data/ This directory contains files submitted by PISCO and transformed by NCDDC. *.nc - Data files in netCDF format that follows the COARDS conventions for standardization. There is one such file for each deployment of each instrument attached to a mooring. NCDDC transformed the data from PISCO's ASCII/text files to these netCDF files. Information about netCDF files and software to access them can be obtained from Unidata. *.xml - FGDC-standard metadata files in XML format. There is one such file for each data (i.e., netCDF) file. NCDDC transformed PISCO's Ecological Metadata Language (EML) files to these files, modifying some of the content to reflect that NODC, not PISCO, will distribute these archival data. data/1-data/ This directory contains files that NCEI converted from their originally submitted format in the 0-data/ directory to an archival format that NCEI can better preserve. *.cdl - NCEI created these Common Data form Language (CDL) files from netCDF data files by using Unidata's ncdump program. ***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0002039 Created on: 2010-12-15 18:55:36 -0000 By: Mathew Biddle, National Oceanographic Data Center Source: Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) via NODC's National Coastal Development Center (NCDDC) as part of the National Marine Sanctuary Program's West Coast Observation System (WCOS).
