PRESSURE - WATER and Other Data from 19880101 to 19911231 (NODC Accession 9100128)

The Master Oceanographic Observation Data Set (MOODS), maintained by the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO), Stennis Space Center, Mississippi, is the standard Navy database for oceanographic observations. Data contained in MOODS include observations of thermal and chemical properties of the water column from surface to bottom, the biota and currents in the water column, and the underlying sea floor as collected by oceanographic agencies worldwide. Although MOODS provides the most comprehensive collection of oceanographic data available, these data require analysis to provide insight into oceanographic processes in regions of interest both to operational Naval forces and Navy Laboratories. Arthur D. Stroud of Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center, Monterey, CA submitted one tape contaning MOODS declassified data from January 1, 1988 to December 31, 1991.
