Meteorological, oceanographic, wave spectra, and other data from FIXED PLATFORMS from the North Atlantic Ocean and other locations from 01 March 1992 to 31 March 1992 (NODC Accession 9200098)

Meteorological, oceanographic, wave spectra, and other data were collected from FIXED PLATFORMS in the North Atlantic Ocean and other locations. Data were collected by the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) from 01 March 1992 to 31 March 1992. Data were processed by NODC to the standard NODC F291-Meteorology, Oceanography, and Wave Spectra from Buoys format. Full format description is available from NODC at www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f291.html. Links to digital data are not available at this time. An analog file is available from NODC user services.

The F291 format is used to report meteorological, oceanographic, and wave spectra data from NDBC moored buoys and fixed land stations. The format contains thirteen data record types to: 1) Identify the buoy position and other descriptive information; 2) report the meteorological measurements; 3) report wave energy spectra and wave direction; 4) report subsurface physical, biological and chemical oceanographic measurements; and 5) report detailed information on continuously measured wind speed and direction. Each record is 120 characters in length, sorted by station and record type. Record type is omitted where data defined in that type and not measured. The first nine columns for all records are to be used for file type (columns 1-3) and file identifier (columns 4-9). The file identifier, assigned by the originator, is a unique originator id for each data submission. After submission, the NODC reassigns to this field a unique and NODC identifier for internal use.

本数据集采集自北大西洋及其他区域的固定平台，涵盖气象、海洋、波谱及其他相关数据。此类数据由国家数据浮标中心（National Data Buoy Center, NDBC）于1992年3月1日至1992年3月31日期间采集。数据已由国家海洋数据中心（National Oceanographic Data Center, NODC）处理为标准的NODC F291《浮标气象、海洋与波谱数据格式》。完整格式说明可通过NODC官网的https://www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f291.html获取。目前暂无数字数据链接，用户可通过NODC用户服务部门获取模拟文件。

F291格式用于上报来自NDBC系泊浮标与固定陆地站的气象、海洋及波谱数据。该格式共包含13种数据记录类型，分别用于：1）标识浮标位置及其他描述性信息；2）上报气象测量数据；3）上报波浪能谱与浪向信息；4）上报水下物理、生物及化学海洋学测量数据；5）上报连续观测的风速与风向详细信息。每条记录长度为120个字符，按测站与记录类型排序。当某记录类型所定义的数据未被实测时，可省略该记录类型标识。所有记录的前9列用于标识文件类型（第1-3列）与文件标识符（第4-9列）。由数据提交方分配的文件标识符，为每次数据提交提供唯一的提交方标识。数据提交后，NODC将为该字段重新分配唯一的内部使用NODC标识符。
