Data were collected from 13 April 1990 to 18 June 1991 as part of the Massachusetts Bays Program (Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay and Cape Cod Bay). Data include water depths, temperatures, salinities, chlorophyll a concentrations, percent light transmissions, and beam attenuations.

The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
