***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0078936 Created on: 2011-10-31 15:51:10 UTC By: Carla (Forgy) Coleman,OC,SSMC3 4807,7133267 x190 Source: Tar files were downloaded from http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/tao/data_deliv/deliv.html on 17 October 2011 by Ricardo Locarnini. All subsurface temperature, salinity, surface meteorology, and buoy position data are downloaded as individual tar files for each ocean basin. Actions: The tar files were copied to the 0-data directory. The data files are obtained from the downloaded tar files (tar -xvf), generating the t*ascii, s*ascii, met*ascii, and pos*ascii for each moored buoy. Version 2.2: 2013-06-18 Acquired updated data from the same source on 2012-01-04, and copied them to 0-data. (Ricardo Locarnini) Files: about/ This directory contains files created by NODC staff, email correspondence, and other 'negotiable' information between NODC staff and the data provider. 0078936_lonlat.txt - 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/. 0078936_map.jpg - Sample location map for these data. data/0-data/ This directory contains the data files as acquired by NODC.
