The project goals were: (1) to monitor and document physical and biological conditions, (2) to increase understanding of the relationship between upwelling / productivity and physical forcing, and (3) to educate the public about oceanic processes, in and around the Cordell Bank and Gulf of Farallones National Marine Sanctuaries. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:UCD-BML Preview graphic PNG 0069874 0093349 0104152 0104198 0104199 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2013-03-26 publication CONDUCTIVITY FLUORESCENCE SALINITY SIGMA-T turbidity WATER TEMPERATURE theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS buoy - moored buoy CTD fluorometer GPS temperature sensor turbidity sensor instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS optical physical time series theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS FIXED PLATFORM OF UNITED STATES moorings platform NODC PLATFORM NAMES THESAURUS Bodega Marine Laboratory Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Bodega Marine Laboratory dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary North Pacific Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOC/NOAA/NOS/NMS > National Marine Sanctuaries, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 23 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
