Water physics and chemistry data from bottle casts from the CHESAPEAKE L/S and other platforms from 1957-01-01 to 1957-12-31 (NCEI Accession 7000291)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 29, 2026 | Last Modified: 2022-01-14T00:00:00.000+00:00
Water physics and chemistry data were collected from bottle casts from the CHESAPEAKE L/S and other platforms from 01 January 1957 to 31 December 1957. Data were submitted by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard F004 Water Physics and Chemistry format. The F004 format is used for data from measurements and analyses of physical and chemical characteristics of the water column. Among chemical parameters that may be recorded are salinity, pH, and concentration of oxygen, ammonia, nitrate, phosphate, chlorophyll, and suspended solids. Physical parameters that may be recorded include temperature, density (sigma-t), transmissivity, and current velocity (east-west and north-south components). Cruise and station information, including environmental conditions of the study site at the time of observations, is also included.
