Meteorological, oceanographic, wave spectra, and other data from FIXED PLATFORMS from the North Atlantic Ocean and other locations in support of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) project from 01 November 1987 to 05 November 1987 (NODC Accession 8800003)

Meteorological, oceanographic, wave spectra, and other data were collected from FIXED PLATFORMS in the North Atlantic and other locations. Data were collected by the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) in support of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) project from 01 November 1987 to 05 November 1987. 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.本数据集涵盖气象、海洋学、波谱等多类数据，采集自北大西洋及其他区域的固定平台。上述数据由国家数据浮标中心（National Data Buoy Center, NDBC）于1987年11月1日至1987年11月5日采集，用于支撑热带海洋全球大气（Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere, TOGA）计划。美国国家海洋数据中心（National Oceanographic Data Center, NODC）将数据处理为标准的NODC F291-浮标气象、海洋学与波谱格式。完整的格式说明可通过NODC官网www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f291.html获取。当前暂未提供数字数据的下载链接，用户可通过NODC用户服务部门获取模拟文件。 F291格式用于报送国家数据浮标中心（NDBC）系泊浮标及固定陆地站的气象、海洋学与波谱数据。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）报送气象测量数据；3）报送波浪能谱与波浪方向信息；4）报送水下物理、生物及化学海洋学测量数据；5）报送连续测量的风速与风向详细信息。每条记录长度为120字符，按测站与记录类型排序。若某类记录对应的数据未被实测，则省略该记录类型。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）。文件标识符由数据提交方指定，为每次数据提交的唯一标识。数据提交后，NODC会将该字段重新分配为供内部使用的唯一NODC标识符。
