Temperature and salinity data from the SEAKEYS project in the Florida Keys from 1991-05-15 to 1995-11-15 (NCEI Accession 9600071)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:57 AM | Dataset Last Updated: November 19, 2002 at 12:00 AM
The data in this collection include a subset of data collected for the SEAKEYS project from 1991 through 1995. Additional data related to the SEAKEYS project may be available from NODC or the NOAA National Data Buoy Center. The SEAKEYS program has since 1992 provided hourly data from up to seven meteorological and oceanographic monitoring stations situated throughout the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and Florida Bay. These data are collected and presented via email and the Web daily, and are supplied through a historical database on the Web. Unique software (Environmental Information Synthesizer for Expert Systems -- EISES) developed for SEAKEYS data operates in near real-time and provides alerts as to conditions conducive to natural events such as coral bleaching (Coral Reef Early Warning System -- CREWS), larval conch survival, and in the future, harmful algal blooms. The future will also bring a database with quality controlled data supplied via the Web, as well as new uses for EISES and new capabilities for CREWS.
