From: Maribel García-Ibáñez Date: Mon, Mar 21, 2022 at 12:08 PM Subject: [CARIMED] - Update of NCEI cruise metadata and files for cruise 06M220180302 To: Alex Kozyr - NOAA Affiliate Cc: Marta Álvarez Hi Alex, I hope your loved ones are safe and sound. My thoughts are with you. Let's hope this situation is solved soon. This will be the first of a list of emails detailing the updates to be performed to the NCEI metadata and files related to CARIMED. As we agreed, I will send an email per cruise. We are updating the cruise table according to the revisions from the cruise responsibles. That cruise table is the one that should be used when creating the CARIMED website. We are also collecting the group information to be stored on that website, as you requested. We will also create a map with all the stations that will be included in CARIMED. Is there anything else we should provide you with for the website? Regarding NCEI cruise metadata and files for cruise 06M220180302, here are the actions to be made on the NCEI website: Changes for data files on NCEI for cruise 06M220180302: Reupload the csv file (I will add this comment to all the cruises). We had updated it because the metadata was incomplete. You can find the updated csv file here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LvpMiZLKRYeeahvgSvHB56JWF95hOq-b Would it be possible to upload a map to the NCEI file repository for the cruise (the same question will apply to all the other cruises)? The map is also here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LvpMiZLKRYeeahvgSvHB56JWF95hOq-b (I will add this comment to all the cruises) Metadata information to be updated on NCEI for cruise 06M220180302: Would it be possible to remove Marta and Toste from the INVESTIGATORS, Principal Investigators, and Cited Authors fields? I discussed this with Marta, and she thinks it is best to just have the PI of the cruise (Dagmar Hainbucher) appearing in those fields. Marta and Toste can appear as Resource Providers. This same issue will apply to all the other CARIMED cruises as well. For those cruises where the PI is missing, we can fill in it as "unknown". (I will add this comment to all the cruises) Can we include the PIs in charge of the other variables that are not inorganic carbon variables and CFCs, as are included for those parameters? (The same question for all CARIMED cruises. The information is on the cruise table for all cruises.) PUBLICATIONS DESCRIBING THIS DATASET in NCEI metadata should include: Hainbucher, D.; Álvarez, M.; Astray, B.; Bachi, G.; Cardin, V.; Celentano, P.; Chaikakis, S.; Chaves Montero, M.; Civitarese, G.; El Rahman Hassoun, A.; Fajar, N.; Fripiat, F.; Gerke, L.; Gogou, A.; Guallart, E.F.; Gülk, B.; Lange, N.; Rochner, A.; Santinelli, C.; Schroeder, K.; Steinhoff, T.; Tanhua, T.; Urbini, L.; Velaoras, D.; Wolf, F.; Welsch, A.
