WATER TEMPERATURE and other data from AUSTRALIA STAR from 1985-11-18 to 1987-09-08 (NCEI Accession 8700387)
This record contains the MOODS/MBT/NAVOCEANO data. In 1987 the NAVY MOODS archive was being prepared for transfer to NAVOCEANO. Roger Bauer of Compass Systems and designer of the MOODS system turned over to NODC 2 digital files and approximately 4 boxes of computer listings and plots that identify MBT stations that should be deleted from our archives and stations that need TSP and DSP adjustments. The digital files reside on optical as NCEI Accession 8700387. The deletions (8700387.001) were performed. However the adjustments were never completed.
After numerous conversations with Roger Bauer regarding the erroneous MBT calibration adjustments in our MBT archive, I requested from NAVOCEANO a copy of all of their MBTs to replace the NODC's MBT archive. This request was made in Aug. 1992 and fulfilled with the shipment of 5 magnetic tapes. At the time NAVOCEANO took over the MOODS data sets and the Navy archiving. The MOODS MBT archive had all of the corrections applied. Again nothing was done with these replacement tapes. Primarily because they lacked NODC identifying information that would enable an easy match with the observations in our archive. However, in 1994? NODC's decision to build a profile database (NODB) and the need for profile data by the Ocean Climate Lab (OCL) seemed to have solved the problem. All profile data went through the OCL quality control activities before being loaded into the NODB. These quality control functions included adjustments to the MBT profile for calibration depths and temps. Thus the MBT profiles in the NODB are NOT the same as those from the DAMUS archive residing on optical disk. Status of materials: The boxes of computer listings and plots are no longer at NODC. The five tapes from NAVOCEANO were trashed before the move to SSMC3.
