NOAA NCEI Accession 8500065 contains hydrostatic pressure, water temperature, and instrument depth data collected from a fixed platform. The dataset covers a one-year period from September 1981 to September 1982. It was collected and archived by NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information.
Use Cases
- Analyze seasonal trends in water_temperature over the one-year observation period.
- Correlate hydrostatic_pressure readings with instrument_depth to study water column density.
- Model coastal water properties using time-series data from a fixed_platform location.
Strengths
- Data collection spans a full annual cycle from 1981-09-04 to 1982-09-01.
- Includes core physical oceanography variables: hydrostatic pressure and water temperature.
Limitations
- Dataset is over 40 years old, with no updates since 1982.
- Specific sample size, geographic coordinates, and data collection frequency are unknown.
