CeNCOOS in situ water quality monitoring at Fort Point Pier

The Fort Point station is located at Fort Point Pier in San Francisco and consists of in-water and meterological sensors. The station has been operational since 2004. This station is maintained by staff of the Bodega Marine Lab and is part of the Bodege Ocean Observing Node (BOON) project. These nearshore sensors are part of the Central and Norther California Ocean Observing System (CeNCOOS). They measure various water quality parameters at fixed points along the California coast.cdm_data_type = TimeSeriesVARIABLES:time (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)latitude (degrees_north)longitude (degrees_east)z (Altitude, m)mass_concentration_of_chlorophyll_in_sea_water (Chlorophyll, microg.L-1)mass_concentration_of_chlorophyll_in_sea_water_qc_agg (Chlorophyll QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)mass_concentration_of_chlorophyll_in_sea_water_qc_tests (Chlorophyll QARTOD Individual Tests)sea_water_electrical_conductivity (Conductivity, mS.cm-1)sea_water_electrical_conductivity_qc_agg (Conductivity QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)sea_water_electrical_conductivity_qc_tests (Conductivity QARTOD Individual Tests)sea_water_practical_salinity (Salinity, 1e-3)sea_water_practical_salinity_qc_agg (Salinity QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)sea_water_practical_salinity_qc_tests (Salinity QARTOD Individual Tests)sea_water_sigma_t (kg.m-3)sea_water_sigma_t_qc_agg (Sea Water Sigma-t QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)sea_water_sigma_t_qc_tests (Sea Water Sigma-t QARTOD Individual Tests)sea_water_pressure (decibars)sea_water_pressure_qc_agg (Sea Water Pressure QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)sea_water_pressure_qc_tests (Sea Water Pressure QARTOD Individual Tests)sea_water_temperature (Water Temperature, degree_Celsius)sea_water_temperature_qc_agg (Water Temperature QARTOD Aggregate Quality Flag)sea_water_temperature_qc_tests (Water Temperature QARTOD Individual Tests)station (Fort Point Pier (NDBC: FPXC1))
