Digital collection of photographic surveys of beach profiles and animals taken as part of the Beach Watch program at Doran Beach (segment 1-06), California from 1999-10-29 to 1999-12-10 (NODC Accession 0071355)

NOAA's Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary (GFNMS) Beach Watch Program, administered by the Farallones Marine Sanctuary Association (FMSA), is a long-term monitoring program operating within GFNMS and NOAA's Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary along the California coast. An objective of the program is to develop baseline information on the organisms inhabiting the sanctuaries and on the physical characteristics of the sanctuaries. To achieve this objective, Beach Watch volunteers have taken photographic slides of animals (both alive and dead) and beach profiles during surveys of over fifty sanctuary beaches every two to four weeks since 1993.

As part of a "data rescue" effort, GFNMS, FMSA, and NOAA's National Oceanographic Data Center and Climate Database Modernization Program have sponsored a project to scan Beach Watch's photographic slides and create high-resolution TIFF and Web-accessible JPEG images for the public. This collection is part of the project, which Jan Roletto of GFNMS coordinated for FMSA, and it contains images from surveys of Doran Beach (segment 1-06), California from 1999-10-29 to 1999-12-10.

美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）下属的法拉隆湾国家海洋保护区（Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary, GFNMS）海滩监测计划（Beach Watch Program）由法拉隆海洋保护区协会（Farallones Marine Sanctuary Association, FMSA）管理，是一项长期监测项目，实施范围覆盖加利福尼亚沿岸的GFNMS与NOAA蒙特雷湾国家海洋保护区（Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary）。该计划的目标之一是建立保护区内栖息生物与保护区物理特征的基准信息。为达成这一目标，自1993年起，海滩监测计划的志愿者每2至4周便会对50余处保护区海滩开展调查，期间拍摄了活体与死亡动物的摄影幻灯片以及海滩剖面资料。
作为“数据救援”（data rescue）工作的一部分，GFNMS、FMSA以及NOAA国家海洋数据中心（National Oceanographic Data Center）与气候数据库现代化计划（Climate Database Modernization Program）共同赞助了一项项目，用于扫描海滩监测计划的摄影幻灯片，并制作高分辨率TIFF图像与可供公众访问的JPEG图像。本数据集为该项目的组成部分，由GFNMS的简·罗莱托（Jan Roletto）代表FMSA统筹协调，包含1999年10月29日至1999年12月10日期间对加利福尼亚州多兰海滩（区段1-06）的调查影像。
