Actions:

NODC uses an automated process to acquire the data from a Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution ftp site maintained by the Biological and
Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.

NODC received MD5 cryptographic checksums with these data. During
ingest processing, NODC verified that the integrity of these data were
maintained during transmission by recalculating sums and comparing
against those received from the data provider.  The original tar file
and MD5 sums file used to transfer these data from the data provider
were discarded after the extraction and validation processes were
successfully completed.

Files which may be found in this accession:
