NOAA Ship Pisces Underway Oceanographic Data from May-June 2021

NOAA Ship Pisces collected raw underway biological, meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, profile, and time series data in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2021-05 30 to 2021-06-13. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations personnel submitted the data and associated metadata to the National Centers for Environmental Information. The data were archived through the NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository program.

Use Cases

• Modeling oceanographic conditions based on underway physical and profile data
• Analyzing biological activity patterns based on underway biological data
• Studying meteorological trends at sea based on meteorological data
• Correlating navigational tracks with environmental measurements based on navigational data

Strengths

• Data collection covers a 15-day period from May 30 to June 13, 2021.
• Includes multiple data types: biological, meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, profile, and time series.
• Data were collected and submitted by NOAA's Office of Marine and Aviation Operations personnel.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
