Abstract
Metadata submitted to the Global Change Master Directory and the U.S. Antarctic Data Coordination Center from U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean studies (SOGLOBEC project)


Dataset Description

Directory Interchange Format (DIF) records

Metadata has been submitted to the U.S. Antarctic Data Coordination Center as part of the grantee obligation.

In general, any metadata record can be accessed directly through the URL:
http://gcmd.nasa.gov/getdif.htm?[entry_id]

where [entry_id] = the Entry_ID of the metadata record, e.g. simrad_SO

Project Information

U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean (SOGLOBEC)


Coverage: Southern Ocean


The fundamental objectives of United States Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC) Program are dependent upon the cooperation of scientists from several disciplines. Physicists, biologists, and chemists must make use of data collected during U.S. GLOBEC field programs to further our understanding of the interplay of physics, biology, and chemistry. Our objectives require quantitative analysis of interdisciplinary data sets and, therefore, data must be exchanged between researchers. To extract the full scientific value, data must be made available to the scientific community on a timely basis.

Program Information

U.S. GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC)


Coverage: Global


U.S. GLOBEC (GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics) is a research program organized by oceanographers and fisheries scientists to address the question of how global climate change may affect the abundance and production of animals in the sea.

The U.S. GLOBEC Program currently had major research efforts underway in the Georges Bank / Northwest Atlantic Region, and the Northeast Pacific (with components in the California Current and in the Coastal Gulf of Alaska). U.S. GLOBEC was a major contributor to International GLOBEC efforts in the Southern Ocean and Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP).
