Full resolution and low resolution real-time physical trajectory profile data from gliders submitted to NCEI by the IOOS National Glider Data Assembly Center (NGDAC) from 2009-05-17 to present

This collection includes full resolution and low resolution real-time physical trajectory profile data from gliders deployed by various institutions in seas world-wide from 2009-05-17 to present.

The National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) received the data in this archival collection from the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) National Glider Data Assembly Center (NGDAC). The IOOS NGDAC received the data in the collected datasets in one or more netCDF files comprising an entire glider deployment. The data are measurements of physical oceanographic properties including temperature, salinity, conductivity, and density. The IOOS NGDAC checked the files for compliance to their netCDF file convention, aggregated the files into a single netCDF file, and then submitted the file to NCEI for long-term preservation.

本数据集收录了2009年5月17日至今，全球各类科研机构在各海域部署的海洋滑翔机（glider）所采集的高分辨率与低分辨率实时物理轨迹剖面数据。
美国国家环境信息中心（National Centers for Environmental Information, NCEI）从集成海洋观测系统（Integrated Ocean Observing System, IOOS）下属的国家滑翔机数据整合中心（National Glider Data Assembly Center, NGDAC）获取了本存档数据集的全部数据。IOOS NGDAC所接收的原始数据均存储于单个或多个网络通用数据格式（netCDF）文件中，这些文件完整覆盖了单套海洋滑翔机部署任务的全部观测内容。该数据集包含物理海洋学参数的观测结果，具体涵盖温度、盐度、电导率与密度。IOOS NGDAC会先校验这些文件是否符合其netCDF文件规范，随后将多个文件整合为单个netCDF文件，最终将该文件提交至NCEI进行长期归档保存。
