***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0160492 Created on: 2017-02-19 08:58:56 UTC By: Automated Ingest Agent Source: These data were harvested from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) Ocean CO2 web service at http://cdiac.ornl.gov/ftp/oceans/LDEO_Database/Version_2013, and accompanying metadata were downloaded from http://mercury.ornl.gov/metadata/ocean/xml/, in accordance with the archival submission agreement between NCEI and CDIAC. Actions: The original data and metadata files were transferred to NCEI by an automated process. Another automated process then transferred the original data files to the data/0-data/ directory of this accession. The automated process also extracted the longitude and latitude data from those data files and plotted a sample location map. The original compressed or tar files used to transfer these data from the data provider were discarded after the extraction and validation processes were successfully completed. Spreadsheets in Microsoft Excel format were converted to comma-separated-value (CSV) text files. Files: about/ This directory contains files generated by NCEI with ancillary information about the data submission. 0160492_lonlat.txt - Contains station 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 decimal degrees). NCEI may have corrected or omitted geographic positions that seemed to be in error when generating this file. However, NCEI did not change the original data files under the directory data/0-data/. 0160492_map.jpg - Station location map for the data. data/0-data/ This directory contains the original files that were downloaded from CDIAC. data/1-data/ This directory contains files that were converted by NCEI from their originally submitted format under the data/0-data/ directory to an archival format. *.csv - Comma-separated-value (CSV) text files that NCEI converted from the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet files in data/0-data/. One or more CSV files may have been created from each Excel spreadsheet file.
