NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette Underway Data in the North Pacific Ocean, June-July 2016

NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette collected raw underway meteorological, navigational, optical, and physical data in the North Pacific Ocean from 2016-06-28 to 2016-07 27. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations personnel submitted the data, which was logged by the ship's Scientific Computer System and archived via the NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository program. The accession includes supplementary cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log.

Use Cases

• Correlate meteorological conditions with oceanographic parameters based on the described underway data.
• Analyze ship navigation patterns and environmental sensor readings for operational research.
• Validate or calibrate satellite-derived ocean data using in-situ physical measurements.
• Study temporal environmental variability in the North Pacific Ocean during the summer of 2016.

Strengths

• Data covers a specific one-month time range from 2016-06-28 to 2016-07-27.
• Includes multiple data types: meteorological, navigational, optical, and physical, logged by a shipboard system.
• Archived through the established NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last updated 2016-07-27 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
• Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
