Description
NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette collected raw underway meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, profile, and time series data in the North Pacific Ocean and Philippine Sea from 2015-04-20 to 2015-06-05.

The data were archived through the NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository program and include supplementary cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log.
Use Cases
Modeling ocean-atmosphere heat and gas exchange based on underway meteorological and physical data.
Analyzing ship track navigation and environmental conditions based on navigational and optical data.
Studying vertical ocean properties based on profile data mentioned in the description.
Conducting time series analysis of oceanographic variables during the cruise period.
Strengths
Data collection spans a 47-day cruise from April to June 2015.
Includes multiple data streams: meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, and profile.
Cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log provides operational context.
