Telephone: (303) 497-6487 FTS 320-6487 V PREFACE The six-volume Catalogue of Data and the loose-leaf Change Notice Nos. 1-16, which have been integrated into the Catalogue, now list all oceanographic data received by World Data Center A, Oceanography, from July 1957 through June 1975. The Catalogue has a loose-leaf arrangement of sheets, which have been punched for standard three-ring binders. It includes station location charts for many cruises. Beginning with Change Notice No. 17, each Change Notice is printed in a modified format as a separate, bound publication describing all data received during a particular six-month or one- year period. The six-volume Catalogue of Data, including Change Notice Nos. 1-16, continues to serve as a reference volume for data received from July 1957 through June 1975. Provision has been made in the modified format for correlating newly received data for a particular cruise with data previously received for that same cruise and already described in a prior Change Notice. The capability for identifying those data, which have been machine-processed by a national, regional, or responsible national oceanographic data center, has been retained in the modified catalogue format. In addition, this format provides a column for listing the catalogue number from the WDC-A, Oceanography, Catalogue of Accessioned Publications, thus identifying the published report in which the referenced data appear. Data gathered before the beginning of the IGY in 1957 are not usually catalogued by the World Data Centers. However, extensive collections of pre-IGY oceanographic data gathered by various countries are available through the facilities of this Center. These data for the most part are oceanographic serial station data, surface and related data available in automated form. Machine listings and magnetic tapes containing these data can be prepared upon request. WDC-A, Oceanography, welcomes suggestions for improved ways to present information in the Change Notices to the Catalogue of Data. It will make every effort to promptly correct any catalog- uing error or omission brought to its attention. VI INTRODUCTION The World Data Center system was established in 1957 to collect data from the numerous and widespread observational programs of the International Geophysical Year (IGY) under the principles set forth by the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) and to make such data readily accessible for an indefinite period of time to interested scientists and scholars. The system consists of World Data Center A (WDC-A) located in the U.S.A.; WDC-B located in the U.S.S.R.; WDC-C located in Western Europe and Japan; and WDC-D located in the People's Republic of China. WDC-A is established under the auspices of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, where the Coordination Office is located. WDC-A is divided into nine discipline subcenters whose addresses are given on pages iv and v. These centers are located in institutions which, in the opinion of the Academy, can best serve the interests of science because of their data-handling capabilities for the appropriate scientific disciplines. WDC-A, Oceanography, is collocated with the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) in Washington, D.C. After completion of the IGY program, ICSU delegated the responsibility for the operation of the World Data Centers to its Comite International de Geophysique (CIG) and subsequently to the ICSU Panel on World Data Centres. The framework for continued international exchange of oceanographic data is set forth in ICSU's Guide to International Data Exchange through the World Data Centres and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission's (IOC's) Manual on International Oceanographic Data Exchange. The types of oceanographic data desired for inclusion in the World Data Center system are those from Declared National Programs (DNP's) and international cooperative expeditions. DNP's are those for which a nation intends to exchange the resulting data internationally. Data are to be exchanged internationally in accordance with provisions of the IOC's Manual and the ICSU Guide. Lists of National Oceanographic Programs (NOP's) are compiled by the various national committees on oceanography and submitted to the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission for dissemination. Contributors of oceanographic data to the World Data Center system and national committees on oceanography are urged to compare the Catalogue of Data with their Declared National Programs published in IOC information documents to determine whether the cruises actually completed agree with those listed and to ensure that the data resulting from them are transmitted to the World Data Centers in the manner prescribed by the IOC Manual and the ICSU Guide. Data need not be limited to those represented by DNP's or NOP's; WDC-A, Oceanography, welcomes additional data that fall within the framework of the ICSU Guide and the IOC Manual and that contributors may wish to include in the World Data Center system. HOW TO USE THE CHANGE NOTICE TO THE CATALOGUE OF DATA Catalogue Numbering System The catalogue numbering system uses groups of numbers and letters to designate identifying references for purposes of data archiving and retrieval. A catalogue number consists of numerals for the assigned: series, country, institution, ship and cruise. Series — The catalogue numbering system is divided into basic groups called series. At present, these consist of the 100 series for data from ships and other mobile platforms and the 200 series for data from shore and fixed stations in the following categories: a. Coastal and island stations. b. Near shore manned stations; i.e., lightvessels and platforms. c. Offshore manned stations; i.e., ocean weather ships. d. Unmanned stations; i.e., automatic buoys. e. Stations on shipping routes. f. Offshore reference stations visited regularly. g. Cables in use for oceanographic observations. h. Repetitive drifting observations; i.e., ice islands, drifting buoys. Country — A list in the Indexes section includes all countries and institutions from which this Center has received data during this period together with their discrete identifying numbers. The series and two-digit country number comprise the first three digits of the catalogue number. Example: For country number 1, Argentina, data from ships and mobile platforms are catalogued as 101, and data from shore and fixed stations as 201. NOTE: The designations of countries used in this catalogue do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of this Center concerning the legal status of any country or territory, or of its authorities, or concerning the delineation of the frontiers of any country or territory. Institution — An institution which contributed data, either directly or through its designated national agency or national, regional or specialized oceanographic data center, is assigned a decimal number following the series/country number. Example: The number 101.01 is assigned to data taken by ships and mobile platforms and received from the Argentine Servicio de Hidrografia Naval, and the number 201.01 is assigned to data taken at shore and fixed stations and received from the same institution. Ship — Each ship, or in some instances a group of ships operating together, is assigned a letter following the series/country/institution number. The letter is followed by a number assigned to the particular cruise as the data are received. NOTE: The term "cruise" is used in this catalogue to define, whenever possible, the beginning and ending dates of a series of data collected by a ship, usually identi- fied by the contributing institution with a cruise name and/or number. Sometimes it is necessary to group together several series of data from one or more ships under one catalogue number. Example; The first cruise data received from the Argentine Servicio de Hidrografia Naval are from the ship CAPITAN CANEPA, which is assigned the letter A, followed by the number 01, thus A-01; the second cruise is A-02, the third A-03, etc. Thus, the catalogue numbers 101.01 A-01, A-02, A-03, etc. A similar system is used in the 200-series for ships but is not applied to lightvessels and fixed shore stations; for the latter the ship/cruise identifier is omitted. For these categories, the series/country/institution numbers are given, but the lightvessel 's or station's name must be added instead of the ship/cruise number to complete the catalogue identification. Example; The Canadian station at Triple Island is identified as; 206.03 Triple Island. A shore station is listed under the country in or near whose territory it is located. If observations are carried out and the data contributed by an institution of another country, the observing country's name and institution are listed after the name of the country of location. How to Use the Alphabetical Index 1. Look up the name of the ship or fixed station in the Alphabetical Index where the related country/institution/ship catalogue numbers are listed. 2. Look up, under the respective countries, the indicated Catalogue Numbers. How to Use the Geographical Index 1. Obtain the geographic area number and name from the Geographical Index Charts. 2. Look up the list of catalogue numbers of available data for the area in the Geographical Index. 3. Use these catalogue numbers to locate information about the types and amount of data available. How to Obtain Data from WDC-A, Oceanography When communicating with the Center for additional information concerning data, always refer to the specific catalogue numbers for data of interest to you. The catalogue numbers are designed to speed the identification and retrieval of the information or data you need. Address all correspondence to: Director World Data Center A, Oceanography National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Washington, D.C. 20235, U.S.A. If you telephone, the area code is 202. The Director's number is 606-4546. The Associate Director's number is 606-4571. The Data Archives number is 606-4571. If you wish to visit the Center, its office hours are from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Center is not open on Saturdays, Sundays, and U.S. national holidays. If you wish the use of study space, you should, if possible, give the Center a day or two advance notice so that necessary arrangements can be made. There is no charge for the use of study space. Data Exchange Policy of World Data Center A, Oceanography World Data Centers are held responsible for the provision of data and information to qualified requesters in the scientific community either in exchange or at a cost not to exceed that of processing and shipping. Unless a requester specifies otherwise, the Center is responsible for using the method which most satisfactorily reproduces the data or information item at the least cost. For certain types of requests, limitations in funding, personnel, or facilities may preclude direct or free provision of data or information by the World Data Center. Data exchanges between WDC-A, Oceanography and WDC's in the same discipline usually take place without charge for routine exchanges of mutually agreed-upon types of data received by WDC-A in internationally-approved data exchange formats and in readily reproducible media forms. Non-standard data types are not normally exchanged. The ICSU Panel has now recognized that it is not always economically feasible to copy large data sets from one WDC to another. For certain types of data, the exchange of inventories of available data in a WDC subcenter may be considered acceptable in lieu of the transfer of the actual data sets . In general, reasonably-sized requests from national or regional contributors to WDC-A, Oceanography may be considered as exchange, and equivalent data thus provided to the requester without charge. For requests for unusually large amounts of data, for specially formatted data, for derived data products, or for data to be obtained from outside the WDC system, WDC-A will normally be required to recover the costs of processing and shipping, or, at its discretion, may arrange for the request to be serviced by an RNODC or a regional, national, or disciplinary center. WDC-A may serve as an intermediary or coordinator for requests for unique types of data or data in other disciplines by placing the originator of the request in contact with the appropriate institution or disciplinary center. Normally, WDC-A, Oceanography considers its data exchange commitment with a cooperating Data Center to be limited to the servicing of those requests or routine updating requirements intended to build or enhance standard data bases operated by that Center for specific, mutually agreed-upon data types and geographical areas of national or scientific interest. If the availability of funding and resources permit, WDC-A also attempts to assist such cooperating Data Centers when they require special data sets for institutions that are performing project-related research for international climate and global change programs and/or that have historically contributed data to WDC-A, Oceanography through that Data Center. WDC-A, Oceanography is obliged, in any case, to follow the exchange and cost recovery policies of its sponsoring (funding) government agency, while attempting to maintain consistency with data exchange guidelines of the ICSU Panel on WDC's as published in the ICSU Guide. Data and information may be requested from WDC-A, Oceanography through NODCs, Designated National Agencies, or any other organization identified by national or international initiatives as responsible for communication with the World Data Centers. These materials may also be requested directly from WDC-A, Oceanography. Organizations, institutions, or individuals from Member States of the IOC may apply to the IOC Secretariat or UNESCO for possible assistance in funding their projects. Data Centers or institutions in the international community that have acquired an automated data set or specialized data product from WDC-A must be aware that the original data set may be updated from time to time, errors corrected, or spurious data deleted by the originating data center. Where duplicate data sets are deliberately held in this way, the holder is responsible for making regular contact, as required, with the originating center to check whether the old data set is still valid, whether it should be deleted, or whether new data are available. WDC-A bears no responsibility in the conduct of these arrangements, except as regards the provision of information in its role as a coordination and referral center. Acknowledcrment of Data Sources In many instances, data contributed to the Center are unpublished at the time of receipt. Unpublished data can be identified in the Change Notice by the absence of a publication number in the column entitled Data Center Reference Number. Accordingly, as stipulated by the Guide, recipients of copies of such data from the Center are reminded that the rights of the original investigators must always be respected. Thus, it is requested that if any data supplied by Center are published, due acknowledcrment be made of the institution which undertook the original observations. To facilitate proper acknowledgment, the Change Notice indicates the originating institution. PART I CATALOGUE INDEXES EXPLANATION OF THE ALPHABETICAL INDEX OF SHIPS AND FIXED STATIONS This index presents in alphabetical order the names of the ships, lightvessels, platforms, and shore stations that are listed on the Data Information sheets. Ship or Fixed Station — The name of the ship, lightvessel, platform, lighthouse, shore station, etc. Names of ships and lightvessels are given in capital letters, with lightvessels identified by (LV) after their name. All others not so identified are shore or other types of fixed stations. Country — The name of the country that used the ship to collect data, or the name of the country in or near whose territory fixed oceanographic stations observations were made. If the data were collected by an institution of another country, the contributing country is listed after the one where the observations were taken. Catalogue Number — The country and institution numbers and ship letter assigned to each ship are given in this column to facilitate locating data information in the catalogue. EXPLANATION OF THE GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX The Geographical Index is based on the divisions of areas shown on the three charts immediately preceding the Index. These divisions are defined in "Limits of Oceans and Seas," Special Publication No. 23 of the International Hydrographic Bureau, third edition, Monaco, 1953. To define the extensive areas of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans more specifically, the following subdivisions have been added: 23 - North Atlantic Ocean 57 - North Pacific Ocean 23a - Northeast Atlantic 2 3b - Northwest Atlantic 57a - Northwest Pacific 57b - Northeast Pacific 32 - South Atlantic Ocean 61 - South Pacific Ocean 32a - Southeast Atlantic 32b - Southwest Atlantic 61a - Southwest Pacific 61b - Southeast Pacific 45 - Indian Ocean SO - Southern Oceans 4 5a - Northwest Indian 45b - Northeast Indian 45c - Southwest Indian 45d - Southeast Indian South of latitude 50° South The catalogue numbers of ship cruises extending into any of the areas, or shore or fixed stations located in the areas, are listed under the area's number and name.

The entries are described below. Countries are arranged in the sequence shown in the numerical list of countries. Data from each country are arranged in the sequence of catalogue numbers. The 2 00-series data sheets follow the last 100-series data sheet in the catalogue. Country/Catalogue Number -■- The series number and two digit number of the contributing country, as well as the identifying number for the data information, are given in this column. Details of the catalogue numbering system are given in the section How to Use the Change Notice to the Catalogue of Data. The numbers corresponding to the country and institution portions of the Catalogue Number are found in the index section that lists countries and contributing institutions. Country/Ship or Fixed Station -- The country name, as well as the names of ships are printed in capital letters; lightvessels are identified by (LV) following the name. All other names not so designated are those of shore stations and other types of fixed platforms, such as lighthouses (LH) or offshore towers; names are reported as they appear with the data. Start Date/End Date -- The dates during which the data were gathered are given in the order of day/month/year. In some instances, depending on the nature of the project, the dates indicate the beginning and ending of a cruise or expedition, while in others the dates indicate the first and last observations. For shore and fixed stations months and years only are usually given. Region — The region (s) of the World Ocean where observations were gathered. The areas listed are defined in "Limits of Oceans and Seas," International Hydrographic Bureau, Special Publication No. 23, third edition, Monaco, 1953, with certain modifications as indicated in the Catalogue Indexes section. Oceanographic Serial Stations Number of Stations — The number of oceanographic serial stations (also referred to as hydrographic, hydrographical , hydrological and hydrochemical stations by various authorities) at which serial measurements of temperature, salinity, and other chemical values are made, normally to depths of five meters or greater. Data to depths less than five meters are usually catalogued as Surface Observations. The single dagger symbol (t) is used to denote data obtained by electronic, in-situ, Salinity/Temperature/Depth (STD) or Conductivity/Temperature/ Depth (CTD) sensors. 25 Physical and Chemical Data — The types of physical and chemical data, available at serial depths as observed and as computed values, are listed using the following symbols and abbreviations : T - Temperature of the water sample CI - Chlorinity S - Salinity Oxy - Dissolved oxygen content CO2 - Carbon dioxide pH - Hydrogen ion concentration Alk - Alkalinity N - Nitrogen compounds P - Phosphorous compounds Si - Silicon compounds sig-t - Density of the water at T & S in-situ and at atmospheric pressure SVA - Anomaly of specific volume TherAnom - Thermosteric anomaly AD - Anomaly of dynamic heights PE - Potential energy PT - Potential temperature Q - Q factor for transport computations Vs - Speed of sound NOTE: Chemical compounds may also be indicated by standard chemical symbols. Sample Depths — The depth, or range of depths, to which the predominant number of samples/casts for that particular cruise were observed. They are recorded to the nearest 100 meters, except when the observations are in water less than 100 meters in depth, in which case they are usually recorded to the nearest 10 meters. Maximum Depth — The actual depth of the deepest sample/cast for a particular cruise or data set and is not rounded off. BT^s — The type and number of mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) or expendable bathythermograph (XBT) observations are indicated by: MB - Analog prints of bathythermographs taken by a mechanical BT MTb - Tables or listings of mechanical BT temperature readings at selected depths XB - Analog prints of bathythermographs taken by an expendable BT XTb - Tables or listings of expendable BT temperature readings at selected depths 26 DTb - Table or listings of digital BT temperature readings at selected depths Currents — The types and quantity of observations of surface and subsurface currents are indicated by: Surf - Surface Subs - Subsurface Biological — The types of marine biological observations made and the number of stations and/or abundance of data are indicated by any of the following categories: Phyt - Phytoplankton Pigm - Pigments PrPr - Primary productivity Zoo - Zooplankton Nek - Nekton Eggs - Fish eggs and/or larvae Neus - Neuston Pleu - Pleuston Sest - Seston Bent - Benthos PeF - Pelagic fishes DeF - Demersal fishes Cet - Cetacea Micr - Microbiological data Biol - Bioluminescence Poll - Pollution studies Surf - Surface visual observations of birds, fishes mammals, reptiles and discolored water FObs - Fishery observations C14 - Carbon Bore - Borers and foulers Meteorological -- The types of meteorological observations taken in conjunction with oceanographic data are indicated by: Wd - Wind direction and speed W - Weather Ta - Temperature of the air, dry bulb Tw - Temperature of the air, wet bulb Bar - Atmospheric pressure, barometer Cld - Clouds Vis - Visibility Hum - Humidity DP - Dew point Pre - Precipitation SoRa - Solar radiation Rad - Radiosonde observations Sea Surface — The types of sea surface observations and measurements taken are listed. In addition to the abbreviations and symbols listed for Physical and Chemical Data, the following 27 are also used: Col - Color of the water Tra - Transparency of the water Wa - Visual data on waves, including sea state IWa - Instrumented wave data Ice - Data on ice in the sea LP - Light penetration LPW - Long period wave records Data Center Reference Number -- Data which have been processed by Automatic Data Processing (ADP) machine methods at a national, regional, or responsible oceanographic data center, usually have been assigned some type of identifying reference number by that center. The availability of data in magnetic tape or machine listing format is indicated by the initials of the data center followed by that center's reference number. For example, machine-processed oceanographic station data for Reference Number 310863 of the National Oceanographic Data Center would appear as NODC 310863. As a means of identifying those types of data that have been machine-processed and thus correspond to the Reference Number, the Diamond symbol ( ) is entered in the appropriate columns describing data that are automated under that Reference Number. Publication number refers to the Catalogue Number from the WDC-A, Oceanography Catalogue of Accessioned Publications Supplement identifying the published report in which the referenced data appear. The absence of a number in this column indicates that the data were not received in published form. Remarks — Any additional information included to further describe the data. The term "(CAT. OF DATA)" or "(Change)", indicates that data for this listed cruise represent an addition to data previously received by WDC-A, Oceanography, and already described under this Catalogue Number in the Catalogue of Data (including Change Notice Nos. 1-16) or the referenced Change Notice. An asterisk (*) is placed beside each data entry which represents an addition to data catalogued previously; the total number of observations held for this cruise is shown in parentheses ( ) beneath the data entry. Data entries preceded by a minus sign (-) and enclosed in parentheses, e.g. (-9) , indicate a deletion of observations. For more extensive explanation of some cruises, the Remarks Section immediately follows the main Catalogue Section in this Change Notice. NOTE: Track charts showing locations of oceanographic observations are not printed in the Change Notice. If a track chart is available for a particular cruise, that information will be given in the Remarks Section of this Change Notice. WDC-A will gladly provide copies of such track charts upon reguest. 28 < < Q 01 Q ^ ^ en Oil O < < 4-t 8 8 V w -H ^ a 00 D U fN U u c2 cr> f*i H ^ m CO 1 \ ;i in — to jj > t/i u > — 1/1 u > 1 ^ -T 1 1 *^ * cr •'T O -. o* * D> * ^ O V cr * >.rsi H -H g O -H t:-^^ M « < tx {/I H ■-( q X o - »1 ^ O 2 to to to jJ > to 4J > «9 5 H -H t lO — w<0 — io<0 — W' z w >• Q I h- ? t- S^cr Z I LU sti 8oi ^cS O => z i 3 ti: > tr LU > Ol LL cn CL u| HI LU cr Y RECEIV ALINrPr/T TACENTE TION. i'^^^ vo rivrr THE RKS 1^21 <§8S !5 O z uj Q O 0 I rTiONTO IN-SFTU CORRES ASESEE gy^y < z I a §^<^ H&55 5 y Q 2 5mg^^ HI Q LU 1^ (T LU X Ll- uj z Q n §§za HIS ATA ACH INAL H Q 2 Si^ I 10 « fc O LU LU Q "- H t Q < LU Q 5 D Q z [i: . *-o t 29 ^ CO r- 00 U3 r-t 1 rH ^ 1 CD n rH 00 rH -v. 1 \ 1 o fO tf \o rH rH fN O r- fN 00 •• 1 0) ■D 1 -0 a^ OJ OJ 1 O 0) 0 fN 0 rH n n m a u -0 U T) a D m ■D u OJ c (U C u rsi u Oj m Oj (T] u U 1 u fSi cc 1 00 1 1 LU uJ ^ (NJ o T CD ^r r- CO CD 00 CD CT^ rH fN O rsi CO ro o CD O CD CD ^ CO CO 00 00 00 03 CD CO * CD CO « « 1 00 CD CO * 00 00 CD 00 .-H cT\ rsj 1-1 r- c^ i-H rH r- rH VO o r-t ^ in r- r- CD CO <-!

Only those data sets that have actually been received by WDC-A, Oceanography are described in this section. WDC-A can provide magnetic tape copies of these data sets in the origina- tor's format. These data products are not described in the usual manner in the Catalogue portion of the Change Notice (except for certain separately-identified cruises that are also included in data sets such as FOY), as the data are not usually merged with the standard WDC-A, Oceanography data bases. Thus they constitute a suite of data products, prepared by RNODC's and other Specialized Data Centers, that are separate and distinct from the standard data types regularly catalogued in the Change Notices and normally available from WDC-A. Such data products are not necessarily intended to be routinely exchanged by the WDCs under normal international data exchange guidelines. They may be voluminous or costly to prepare and, thus, may be precluded from regular data exchanges between WDCs and their exchange cooperators. Data sets in automated form are available from the WDCs usually at a cost not to exceed the cost of reproduction and postage. MEDALPEX soc .N^^^P^^ 57 <^^^i^^ RNODC FOY FGGE OPERATIONAL YEAR GLOBAL OCEAN CLIMATE DATA BASE The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) is pleased to announce the availability of the Global Ocean Climate Data Base compiled as part of its efforts as the Responsible National Oceanographic Data Center for the FGGE* Operational Year (RNODC/FOY). The Global Ocean Climate Data Base is a collection of Oceangraphic data submitted to NODC by 17 different countries. Although the formal FGGE Operational Year was from 1 December 1978 to 30 November 1979, the data set covers the extended FOY period from 1 September 1978 to 29 February 1980. The data base includes four types of data: (1) oceanographic hydrocast (bottle) data, (2) con- ductivity/ salinity-temperature-depth (C/STD) data, (3) expendable bathythermograph (XBT) data, and (4) Eulerian currrent (current meter) data. The data are recorded on magnetic tape in two different formats: (1) the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission General Exchange Format 3 (GF3) and (2) NODC archive formats (different format for each of the four types of data). In GF3 the data base comprises eight magnetic tapes; in the NODC formats the data base comprises four tapes. The FGGE Operational Year was the culmina- tion of a series of international ocean/atmos- phere research programs conducted in the 1970's. This effort, in turn, was a steppingstone toward the increasingly ambitious and large- scale research and monitoring pro-grams of the 1980's and 1990's that are directed toward fuller understanding of tropical dynamics and their in- fluence on global ocean/atmosphere phenomena. *FGGE = First GARP Global Experiment, also known as the Global Weather Experiment.

The flEDALPEX project took place between 1 September 1981 and 30 September 1982, with a special period of observation from 15 February 1982 to 30 April 1982. It was a multi-national project involving scientists from 7 countries. The main purpose of "lEDALPEX was to increase understanding of the effect of wind forcing on the dynamics of the western part of the ^4editerranean Basin. Specific studies were undertaken, each having a particular scientific objective including: 1. The interrelationship between the general circulation and mesoscale eddies 2. Offshore dynamic response mechanisms under severe weather conditions 3. Storm surges and the piling up of water, especially in the Adriatic and Ligurian seas The measurement of sea level was considered to be an important component of the observation program to support these studies. A wide range of other types of oceanographic data were also collected, including classical and synoptic meteorological measurements, data collected using remote sensing techniques and data from current meters, thermistor chains, waverider buoys, CTDs and XBTs . The Permanent Service for Mean Sea Level (PSMSL) was requested by IOC to fulfil the role of the Responsible National Oceanographic Data Center for the MEDALPEX sea level data. The work was under- taken on behalf of PSMSL by the Marine Information and Advisory Service (MIAS) - U.K.'s National Oceanographic Data Center. Sea level data were submitted to MIAS from 29 of the 40 MEDALPEX sites. An inventory of the data is given on the following page. Measurements from 28 of the sites were taken using conventional stilling wells and, with one exception, were supplied to MIAS as hourly values. Data from the remaining site, off the coast of Corsica, were collected by an Aanderaa water level recorder at half-hourly intervals. 61 INVENTORY OF DATA RECEIVED BY MEDALPEX SEA LEVEL DATA CENTER SITE LATITUDE LONGITUDE START SERIES CYCLE DATE DURATION INTERVAL DDD MM.MH DDD MM.MH DD/MMA'Y WEEKS SECS CADIZ 36 32.0N 6 17.0W 01709/81 56 3600 TARIFA 36 O.ON 5 36.0W 01709/81 56 3600 GIBRALTAR 36 8.0N 5 21.0W 01709/81 56 3600 CEUTA 35 54.0N 5 19.0W 01709/81 56 3600 ALGECIRAS 36 7.0N 5 26.0W 01/09/81 56 3600 PUERTOS BANUS 36 37.0N 4 55.0W NO DATA MALAGA 36 43.0N 4 25.

The data for each site were plotted as a time series and checks were carried out for gaps or constant values, spikes, spurious data or punching errors. Further checks were carried out by tidally analyzing and low pass filtering the data, Non-tidal fluctuations were investigated using principal com- ponent analysis. Qualifying information applicable to the data from each site was checked for inconsistencies and completeness, and appropriate documentation was stored with the data in the form of plain language records. The complete quality controlled dataset, including documentation, is available as a single magne- tic tape formatted in GF3 , the IOC's standard format for the exchange of oceanographic data. h copy of the magnetic tape may be obtained at a cost not to exceed the cost of reproduction and postage from: World Data Center A, Oceanography National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration Washington, D.C. 20235 U.S.A. or RNODC/MEDALPEX Sea Level Data MIAS Bidston Observatory Merseyside L43 7RA U.K. 63 TOGA TROPICAL OCEAN and GLOBAL ATMOSPHERE PROGRAMME TROPICAL SUBSURFACE DATA SET TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Centre The TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Centre in Brest operates within the framework of both the IOC's International Oceanographic Data Exchange (lODE) system and the Joint lOC-WMO Integrated Global Ocean Services System (IGOSS) . The Centre collects subsurface ocean observations for the tropical oceans (30°N-30°S) from the following sources: 1. tropical oceans observations from the IGOSS network; 2. additional vertical temperature profiles from XBT's and from drifting or moored buoys with thermistor chains, not sent over the GTS ; 3. time series of temperature and conductivity (salinity) at fixed depth from moored thermistor chains; 4. surface temperature and conductivity (salinity) data and vertical profiles of temperature and conductivity as from CTD's, bottle casts, and WCTD's; and 5. other subsurface ocean temperature and conductivity (salinity) measurements from process-oriented intensive oceanographic observation projects in the tropical oceans. Initially, data are collected from radio transmissions, with fully digitized and quality controlled observations added with time. The subsurface thermal data described above are analyzed and the Centre produces quality-controlled Level II-B data sets for the tropical oceans for the ten-year period (1985-1994) . The Centre is also responsible for provision of these data sets on magnetic tape in GF-3 format to other TOGA Data Centres and to the World Data Centers, Oceanography at appropriate intervals. 64 WDC-A. Oceanography Support: to TOGA WDC-A, Oceanography serves as an archival center for the TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Sets. Its responsibilities are to provide TOGA data sets to requesters in the international scientific community, at a cost not to exceed that of data reproduction and postage, and to provide copies of all TOGA data sets received to World Data Center B, Oceanography in exchange. WDC-A, Oceanography provides additional data management support to the TOGA program by its contributions to the enhancement of global tropical thermal data bases. WDC-A has utilized the IOC's lists of Declared National Programs (DNP's) to identify selected cruises for which data were observed in the tropical oceans and, subsequently, requested the data. Report of Observations/Samples Collected by Oceanographic Programs (ROSCOP) marine data inventory forms have been used in the same manner to identify available tropical oceans data. The compilation of the Time Series Data Inventories of the world's oceans by WDC-A, has also resulted in some cases in the identification of available tropical ocean observations. WDC-A expects to utilize these tools increasingly in the future to acquire selected data sets intended to further enhance the tropical oceans data bases. Climate researchers and modelling experts have identified the digitization of historical oceanographic observations as one of the key elements required in data management support for TOGA and other Global Change programs, such as GOFS and WOCE . Such data sets are frequently extremely useful in filling spatial or temporal gaps in existing digital data holdings. WDC-A, Oceanography's data archives contain data for a substantial number of observations in manuscript form that have never been processed. A significant portion of these could provide support to TOGA. For example, some Japan Fisheries Agency standard sections in the Western Pacific are in the TOGA area. Many of these manuscript data sets would be amenable to data entry by an optical scanning device. The possibility of support for procurement of such a device is being explored by WDC-A. TOGA Tropical Subsurface Data Products WDC-A receives Level II-B data sets from the Subsurface Data Centre in Brest for both Atlantic and Indian Oceans data, as previously described. Magnetic tape copies of the Level II-B data sets for the Atlantic and Indian Oceans are then provided to WDC-B, Oceanography in exchange. Magnetic tape copies of these data sets are available at the cost of tape reproduction from: World Data Center A, Oceanography National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Washington, D.C. 20235 U.S.A.

The RNODC was created under guidelines set forth in Recommendation XII . 1 by the IOC's Technical Committee on International Oceanographic Data Exchange (lODE XII, Moscow 10-17 December 1986) . The Terms of Reference of the RNODC/SOC include the following responsibilities: - Acquire, quality control, and store in standard format the physical and chemical data obtained by the international community from the cruises and research programmes carried out in the Southern Oceans; - Co-operate closely with the World Data Centers, Oceanogigiy by sending regular shipments (at least once a year) , free of charge, of complete sets of physical and chemical data stored on magnetic tapes in GF3 , and inventories, data summaries, and other data products related to the physical and chemical data from the Southern Oceans; - Assist the World Data Centers by sending copies to them of any ROSCOP forms submitted to the RNODC-SOC; - Co-operate with the BIOMASS Data Center, regarding exchange of data and inventories, as well as other data products. The RNODC-SOC is located in and operated by the Argentine Oceano- graphic Data Center (CEADO) . 67 RNODC/SOC Oceanoqraphic Data Set The RNODC/SOC data set contains data for all available oceanographic stations for the Southern Oceans between 50° and the Antarctic Continent. Data for a total of 10,202 oceanographic stations taken during 272 Southern Oceans cruises are included in the data set. Seasonally, the data totals are 1,898 observations taken during the Austral Winter (April-September) and 8,304 observations taken during the Austral Summer (October-March) . Southern Oceans observational data taken by 14 countries have been received by the RNODC. The RNODC/SOC data set is available from: RNODC/SOC Servicio de Hidrografia Naval (A.R.A.)

IGOSS was established to support oceanographic and meteorological research efforts by providing: (1) a global distribution of oceanographic observations, (2) a mechanism for the timely and effective exchange of data, and (3) the preparation of oceanographic analysis products capable of supporting global change and climate research studies. IGOSS products and services can be useful for input to large scale circulation models, for research survey planning, and for direct application in commercial fisheries, recreation, commercial shipping, and search and rescue efforts. Real-time ocean products currently available include sea surface and subsurface temperature analyses, as well as graphical depictions of mixed layer depths and ocean frontal positions. Additional analyses and data summaries available as delayed-mode products include: (1) ocean currents, (2) salinity, (3) distribution of pollutants, and (4) weekly and monthly temperature means. The IGOSS data are BATHY (profiles of temperature with depth) and TESAC (temperature/salinity/current profiles with depth) . The major operational elements of the IGOSS program are: (1) observing system, (2) data processing and services system, (3) telecommunication arrangements, (4) marine pollution monitoring, and (5) data archival and exchange. The organiza- tional structure of the IGOSS data processing and services system consists of World Oceanographic Centers in Moscow and Washington and National and Specialized Oceanographic Centers in partici- pating nations. Data from all cooperating nations are combined in standard formats at the World Oceanographic Centers, and then used as input to global and hemispheric analyses for improved weather forecasting, global climate studies, and a variety of products for oceanographic research uses. National Oceanographic Centers provide quality control for data from their country entering the international exchange system via a high speed global telecommunications link called the Global Telecommuni- cation System (GTS) of the World Weather Watch. IGOSS ^ 70 Long-range data exchange and service arrangements and long-term archival functions for IGOSS data are performed by National Oceanographic Data Centers in Japan, the U.S.S.R., and the United States. These NODC's, serving as Responsible National Oceanogra- phic Data Centers (RNODC's) for IGOSS, compile archives of IGOSS data and products, assume responsibilities for specified regions of the world oceans, and deal with problems of quality control. They maintain geographically sorted, updated magnetic tape files of observations received via the GTS. RNODC's/IGOSS Terms of Reference The terms of reference for RNODC's/IGOSS are as follows: 1. Acquire BATHY and TESAC datasets and sub-surface temperature data from drifting and moored buoys from IGOSS Specialized Oceanographic Centres (SOC) for area of responsibility; apply supplementary quality control to acquired data and provide services to users after 30 days from receipt of that data; 2. Acquire non-operational BATHY, TESAC, and sub-surface temperature data from drifting and moored buoys and/or datasets for area of responsibility; apply quality control to non-operational data, prepare integrated datasets, and provide services to users; 3. Maintain a data base and inventories for areas of responsibility; 4. Prepare products based on operational and non-operational IGOSS data, as appropriate; also, archive and make available to users, selected data products provided by SOCs and analysis centres; 5. Provide for exchange of IGOSS data in GF-3 format with other RNODC's or to users as requested; 6. Transmit datasets in GF-3 format, inventories of archived data, and selected data products to the WDC ' s annually; 7. Provide for exchange of documentation and software regarding quality control and processing procedures with other RNODC's, as possible; 8. Participate in efforts to monitor data flow, and participate, as feasible, in IOC training programmes; 9. Prepare inventories of available data sets for the RNODC's area of interest and transmit them to the IOC Secretariat semiannually. 71 RNODC/IGOSS-Japan The RNODC/IGOSS-Japan is operated by the Japan Oceanographic Data Center (JODC) , with support from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) , which serves as a Specialized Oceanographic Center (SOC) for IGOSS. At the SOC, systematic quality control of the collected BATHY/TESAC reports is made. The SOC compiles the IGOSS monthly summaries including maps showing the geographical distribution of BATHY/TESAC messages and numbers of messages of individual ships and sends them to the Secretariat of the IOC. IGOSS data submitted by the SOC are stored in three formats at the RNODC/IGOSS. The first includes the original data file compiled on a semiannual basis. This file contains the collected and processed data from the GTS and other operational sources within the area of responsibility. The second contains the data and data inventory files recorded in a form of the SYNDARC Format, and is available to users as computer-generated data summaries, statistical presentations, and graphical plots, or in a medium which allows the user to further process the data using a personal computer. During the conversion process, minimum quality control procedures are applied to the original data based on IOC Manuals and Guides No. 3. The third is the JODC-f ormatted version of the data inventory file. From this file, data products such as data summaries and location plots of observations are provided to users, as well as to the IOC and WMO. RNODC/IGOSS-U. S . S ♦ R. The RNODC/IGOSS-U. S.S.R. and SOC for IGOSS data was established in 1984 under the auspices of the All-Union Scientific Research Center for Hydrometeorological Information and Hydrometeorological Scientific Research Center of the USSR (Hydrometcentre USSR) . The responsibilities of the RNODC/IGOSS include the collection of BATHY/TESAC messages and logs, quality control of the data, preparation of data sets on magnetic tape, and the development of products concerning availability and time-space data distribution. The RNODC/IGOSS also provides national and international users with copies of data, results of analyses, and with other products for its area of responsibility. The responsibilities of the SOC include preparation, publication, and distribution of different types of operational oceanographic products on a regular basis including those distributed via FAX machines that are readily available to different groups of users. These activities are carried out in accordance with the procedures spelled out in the IOC's Guide to Operational Procedures for the Collection and Exchange of Oceanographic Data (BATHY and TESAC) . 1985 and the Guide to the IGOSS Data Processing and Services System. 1983. 72 RNODC/IGOSS-U.S. The RNODC/IGOSS-U.S., located at the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) , receives near real-time data weekly from the Ocean Products Center at Suitland, Maryland and the Ocean Applications Group in Monterey, California. These data are extracted from the Global Telecommunications System (GTS) on a daily basis for screening and editing. At the RNODC, the magnetic tapes containing the near real-time data sent by the two organizations are run through a series of computer programs to convert the data into NODC's Universal Bathythermograph (UBT) format. This data set is next sorted by date, time, position, and an indicator of the source of the data. The sorted file is then compared with existing observations and duplicates are eliminated. The records retained are then sorted by reference number, date, and time to produce a cruise-ordered data set. From this final data set, inventory records are created and applied to NODC's Data Inventory Data Base (DINDB) . These data are then merged into the RNODC/IGOSS Archive. The Archive is updated on a monthly basis in geographical sequence. Data in the U.S. RNODC/IGOSS Archive are then available for international exchange and can be provided to users in a variety of forms ranging from magnetic tape copies to computer-generated data summaries, statistical analyses, and graphic plots. Availability of IGOSS Data and Products through WDC A. Oceanography Various RNODC/IGOSS data, analyses, and products are available through WDC-A, Oceanography. Upon request, WDC-A will provide magnetic tape copies of pertinent data products, or, alternatively, refer the requester to the appropriate IGOSS data source. 73 RNODC DRIBU RNODC FOR DRIFTING BUOYS Back^ound The Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) began operation of the RNODC/Drifting Buoy Data in January 1986. The RNODC acquires Drifting Buoy Data from worldwide sources, makes the data available to international scientific programs, and prepares geographical plots of Drifting Buoy locations and tracks for the world oceans on a monthly basis. The RNODC also provides monthly statistics of operational buoys and the number of messages received from them. Acquisition of Drifting Buov Data There are three procedures by which Drifting Buoy Data are received by the RNODC. The first and more traditional is for the principal investigator to submit his data directly to the RNODC, or to his National Oceanographic Data Centre which in turn submits the data to the RNODC. For historical data sets, this is the only option available. Data received in this way are usually of the highest quality, since they have undergone the most discriminating calibration and quality control procedures under the direction of the principal investigator; however, data entering the system in this manner are not suffi- ciently timely to meet the operational requirements of the major global science programs. The second path for data flow to the RNODC is via the GTS. An advantage of this procedure is that the data are available in time scales suitable for the operational re- quirements of researchers in programs such as TOGA and WOCE, as well as for other operational users such as meteorological forecasters. Data received in this way may be less accurate, because they have not been fully reviewed and assessed by the principal investigator. For drifting buoy data, there is also a problem in that using the DRIBU format on the GTS for some buoys may limit the data that can be transmitted, because of a requirement to restrict the information to 256 bits. A third procedure involves retrieving the DRIBU data as they pass through Services ARGOS. Although these data still have not been reviewed and assessed by the principal investigator, they are an improvement over the GTS data in that both time of data and time of position are available to improve velocity calculations. Data received by Service ARGOS are stored on magnetic tape for a period of 90 days. After this time, the tapes are reused and the data then reside solely in the hands of the principal investigators. Canada and the United States have agreed to share the cost of buying copies of these tapes for the RNODC. Data from a buoy can only be provided to the RNODC if the principal investigator has given consent in writing. 74 RNODC/Drifting Buov Data Base MEDS utilizes a hierarchical database, called System 2000, to store the drifting buoy data; because of the volume of data, each year of data is stored in its own data base. In order to provide services to users at all time scales and to have available at each time scale the best data available, the RNODC has decided to accept all data using the following hierarchical guidelines: 1. Where possible. Principal Investigators are requested to make their data available to other operational users and to the RNODC by having the data transmitted on the GTS. The RNODC will copy all available data from the GTS, quality control it, and update it into the data base on a weekly basis. 2. Principal Investigators are also requested to agree to have Service ARGOS provide a copy of their data to MEDS via tape each month whether or not those data have already been on the GTS. The data circulated on the GTS have only the one time included which poses a difficulty in calculating velocities. Thus, the tape data with the two times is an improvement to the database and will be used to replace the GTS data in the database. In addition, data will be picked up which could not be circulated on the GTS because of the format of the transmission from the buoy. If Service Argos has not already been supplied with the calibration constants, channel allocations, and algorithms, or has not been requested to make the conversions to physical units, there will be a requirement for the RNODC to obtain this information from the principal investigators. Principal investi- gators are reminded that if the sensor data cannot be made available, the position data itself is of value for the database. 3. Principal Investigators are requested to provide a copy of their Drifting Buoy Data either directly to the RNODC when the fully processed, quality controlled version is available, or to provide the data to their National Oceanographic Data Centre, where the RNODC will be requesting such data on a regular basis. Data received by this path will replace GTS or Service ARGOS versions of the data in the database. By receiving data in the configuration set forth above, and replacing earlier, lower quality data as higher quality versions of the data arrive, the RNODC can offer users a choice between timeliness and quality, as dictated by their particular requirements. The RNODC recognizes that in some cases there exists a need to restrict distribution of data to protect a scientist's right to benefit first from collection activities carried out at a considerable effort and cost. It is noted that the large international experiments generally have data exchange agreements that state when the data are available to other partici- pants and to those outside the program. The RNODC will honor such data exchange agreements and will, at a scientist's request, restrict further distribution of the data according to the terms of the pertinent agreement. In regard to data from individual scientists, bilateral agreements on further distribution of data for a period of up to two years can also be made, if necessary. 75 RNODC Services As mentioned earlier, the RNODC maintains its drifting buoy in a data base structure. This provides maximum flexibility when meeting a request. While a number of different qualifiers may be used to retrieve data, the most common are area and time. Requesters may also specify all data or only those which have passed the quality control procedures. On output, the data can be written to magnetic tape in a standard subset of the GF3 formatting system or in some other agreed ad hoc character format if appropriate. In choosing the data format users should be aware that the GF3 Formatting System is supported by a powerful and growing software system which is available for many of the more widely used host computers. Each month, the RNODC publishes a summary of the data it has received in real time; also produced are global maps of drifting buoy tracks for the previous month. These maps are issued regularly on a monthly basis. Anyone wishing to receive this summary, should contact the RNODC. There is no charge to receive this product.
