Moana Wave: Ocean Pressure and Water Data from 1988 to 1998

Pressure and water property data collected from the Moana Wave research platform. The dataset was published by NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) under accession number 9900206. Measurements were recorded over a ten-year period from October 1988 to December 1998.

Use Cases

• Analyzing decadal trends in oceanic pressure (inferred from domain, verify after download)
• Correlating water property data with other oceanographic observations (inferred from domain, verify after download)
• Validating or calibrating oceanographic models for the specified time period (inferred from domain, verify after download)

Strengths

• Published on the authoritative nasa_earthdata platform
• Data originates from the NOAA_NCEI organization
• Covers a specific ten-year time range from 1988-10-01 to 1998-12-01

Limitations

• Metadata is minimal; actual content requires verification after download
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Last updated 1998-12-01 00:00:00; freshness should be verified
