Tide heights from tide stations in Chesapeake Bay from 1972-01-01 to 1974-06-30 (NCEI Accession 7601613)
This entry contains tidal information for Chesapeake Bay. Data was submitted by Saul Berkman, NOS Tides Branch, Oceanographic Division. These data are in NODC format. These data were collected roughly 37-39 degrees N, 75 degrees W (stations were in Baltimore, Bayport VA, Cambridge MD, Cheathem Annex VA, Chesapeake City, MD, Gaskins Point, VA, Hampton Roads, VA, Kiptopeke Beach VA, Lower Marlboro, MD, Old Pt Comfort VA, Portsmouth VA, Solomons MD, Taylor Island MD, Washington DC, and Windmill Point VA. The data are in half-hourly units and includes latitude, longitude, date, time, and tidal height. The documentation describes the record format. Tide heights are referred to North American Datum (NAD) 1929.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) format.
The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity, and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t), and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals. A text record is available for comments.
