ADCP Data 1993-2004
ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) data are underway ancillary data collected on CalCOFI cruises since 1993. Dr Teresa Chereskin collected and processed these data from 1993 – 2004. These data are available at: SIO ADCP CalCOFI Home page; Table of Cruises 1993 – 2004

Updating CCDB
How to update the CCDB Hydrographic Database in MySQL Create a new CCDB data table containing only newer final data (last update included 201301). The CCDB queriable online database is a distillation of the cast & bottle tables of the CalCOFI Hydrographic Database (webpage). Refer to the query form or CCDB table in the complete…

Underway Information
Underway data are continuous data collected while transiting between stations on CalCOFI cruises. Data collection usually continues while on station so there may be a few to several hours of data in a limited area. Processed underway data are 10 minute average, CTD or bottle sample corrected data. Different vessels such as NOAA RV Bell…

NOAA SCS Variables
CalCOFI cruises collect underway data on NOAA vessels from the SCS (Shipboard Computer System). These data may or may not be combined into a common, comma-delimited, ascii file. Most sensor data are collected at different frequencies and require post-cruise processing to combine into a standard time frame. RV New Horizon’s underway dataset may be a…

Underway Data Format, MET or SCS
SIO vessels collect MET (meterological system) underway data. These data include surface TSG measurements combined with fluorometry, pH, ship instrumentation (such as heading & speed) & meterological data. These values may be combined into 30 second records and collected into daily files. CTD near-surface data are used to correct underway temperature, salinity, & fluorometer measurements. Underway…

SIO-MET Variables
CalCOFI cruises on SIO vessels, particularly RV New Horizon, collects underway data recorded by the MET (shipboard meterological) system. Every thirty-seconds, a record of surface measurements (T, S, Fl, pH), ship measurements (speed, heading, Ashtech, winch, PDR, & more), and meterological measurements (wind, surface PAR, barometer, & more) are combined into a single, comma-delimited record.…
