Source: This accession was prepared by Pat Caldwell, NODC liaison in Hawaii.
Data originally provided by Craig Nosse of the HOTS physical oceanography
group as NetCDF files on March 8, 2012.  These NetCDFs did not
have any specific conventions.  Originators were asked if they could
follow OceanSITES, http://www.oceansites.org/, since these
data are contributed to this program.  On July 27, 2012, a replacement
set was received from Fernando Santiago-Mandujano of the HOTs PO group
with NetCDF OceanSITES convention.

Actions: The NODC liaison made a 1-data directory, in which the netCDF files
in 0-data  were "ncdump"-ed to extract the metadata associated with each file
using the Linux utility "ncdump -h [file.nc]".  This allows a convenience for
users to browse information about each file if a NetCDF is not readily
available.

file: 0098789_lonlat.txt
format: ASCII text
content: 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/.

file: 0098789_map.jpg
format: JPEG
content: Sample location map for these data.

directory: data/0-data/
This directory contains the data files as submitted to NODC.

directory: data/1-data/
This directory contains the data files created by NODC during preparation
for archival at NODC.
