NOAA Ship Pisces Underway Meteorological and Oceanographic Data from June 2019

From June 7 to June 20, 2019, raw underway meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, profile, and time series data were logged aboard NOAA Ship Pisces in the North Atlantic Ocean. Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO) personnel submitted the data and supplementary cruise-level metadata to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) via the NOAA Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program.

Use Cases

• Correlating meteorological conditions with oceanographic profiles based on the described underway physical data.
• Analyzing ship navigation patterns and their environmental context based on the navigational and time series data.
• Studying optical properties of seawater in relation to other physical measurements mentioned in the description.
• Validating or calibrating satellite-derived ocean data using in-situ profile and time series measurements from the cruise.

Strengths

• Data collection covers a specific two-week cruise from June 7 to June 20, 2019.
• Includes multiple data types (meteorological, navigational, optical, physical, profile, time series) logged from a single platform.
• Contains supplementary cruise-level metadata from the Ship Daily Activity Log (SDAL).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last updated 2019-06-20 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
