Water temperature, salinity, and other underway data collected on board the research sail boat Tara in the National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa from 2016-11-27 to 2016-11-28 (NCEI Accession 0241960)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 03:57 AM | Dataset Last Updated: November 19, 2021 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes the cruise summary report and eight data files that provide the underway data collected in the National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa on board the research sail boat Tara from 2016-11-27 to 2016-11-28. The parameters are detailed in the parameter-dictionary file. Parameters include: temperature, salinity, photosynthetically-active-radiation, wind-direction, wind-speed, atmospheric-pressure, dew-point, aerosol-particle-concentration, colored-dissolved-organic-matter-fluorescence, particle-size-distribution-slope, particle-volume-scattering-function, particulate-organic-carbon-concentration, phytoplankton-carbon-concentration, chlorophyll-concentration, and particle-backscattering. Data are in XLSX, DOCX, PDF, and CSV formats. This is US State Department Marine Scientific Research (MSR) Research Application Tracking System (RATS) cruise U2021-022.
