Hi,

I have had some email exchanges about archiving some data with NODC. I have
attached 4 tables (in Excel) of the data I have mentioned. I can also send them
to you in MS Access but they will not be relational.

Some things to note. These 3 Excel spreadsheets:

tblBotCatch
tblBotLength
tblBotSpecimen

are essentially meaningless without this table:

tblBotHaul

Which as all of the location information (lat/long) and dates/times.

The metadata associated with this exact set of data can be found at:

http://www.afsc.noaa.gov/REFM/metadata/metadata_template.php?fname=FITBeaufort2008.xml

The Final Report for this data and subsequent publications are located at:

http://www.afsc.noaa.gov/REFM/Stocks/fit/Beaufort.php

But is also linked within the metadata link above.

Let me know how to proceed at this point.

Thank you for your time,

kim rand

PS I apologize, originally I thought there would only be 2 data tables but in
looking at the data I decided it was worth archiving more of it, hence the 4
tables.
