Subject: submission of CPIES data from KESS experiment Date: Mon, 23 May 2011 16:18:29 -0400 From: Karen Tracey To: NODC.DataOfficer@noaa.gov To whom it may concern-- I am submitting data collected by current-and-pressure-recording inverted echo sounders (CPIES) as part of the Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS). I have attached two files which contain the information requested in the Submission Information Form. Additional information about the data processing and file formats is provided with the data. I put the data files in a tar file called KESS_CPIES.tar on the ftp site. Since the Kuroshio Extension System Studey was a large field program, it might be helpful if it could be assigned a Project ID and if the acronym KESS could be associated with it. Please let me know if additional information is needed. Signed, Karen Tracey -- ********************************************************************* Karen L.
