The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has the statutory mandate to collect hydrographic data in support of nautical chart compilation for safe navigation and to provide background data for engineers, scientific, and other commercial and industrial activities. Hydrographic survey data primarily consist of water depths, but may also include features (e.g. rocks, wrecks), navigation aids, shoreline identification, and bottom type information. NOAA is responsible for archiving and distributing the source data as described in this metadata record.

This accession contains data collected at several Coastal-Marine Automated Network (C-MAN) stations in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and Florida Bay. These C-MAN stations have been outfitted with additional sensors to collect temperature, salinity and PAR data in addition to the standard sensors for weather related observations. The basic National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) C-MAN instrument package generally monitors meteorological data, such as wind speed and direction, air temperature and barometric pressure, but sea temperature is also measured when possible, at 1 meter deep. The SEAKEYS program has since 1992 provided hourly data from up to seven meteorological and oceanographic monitoring stations situated throughout the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and Florida Bay. These data are collected and presented via email and the Web daily, and are supplied through a historical database on the Web. Unique software (Environmental Information Synthesizer for Expert Systems -- EISES) developed for SEAKEYS data operates in near real-time and provides alerts as to conditions conducive to natural events such as coral bleaching (Coral Reef Early Warning System -- CREWS), larval conch survival, and in the future, harmful algal blooms. The future will also bring a database with quality controlled data supplied via the Web, as well as new uses for EISES and new capabilities for CREWS.

Terrapoint collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data contributing to the Puget Sound Lowlands project of 2005. Lynnwood, Snohomish County, Washington. This data set covers approximately 14 square miles. The Airborne LiDAR survey was conducted using Terrapoint?s 40 kHz ALTMS (Airborne Laser Terrain Mapping System), flying at an optimum height of 3500 ft AGL at 140 knots. The system consists of a 36-degree full angle laser, a Trimble 4700 GPS receiver and a Honeywell H764 IMU unit. This metadata is a collaboration of metadata reports from each of the individual 15 projects. The Puget Sound Lowlands project covers more areas over 2000-2004, these areas were excluded for this project.

Population models and evaluation of trends, threats, and extinction risk require the best possible regional estimates of vital rates (averages and annual variation) and are enhanced by understanding of environmental mechanisms that drive these rates. Analyzing the vital rates of marine turtles within U.S. coastal waters is much needed if our Agency is to meet the goals set forth in the NRC Report. In conducting informal or formal ESA consultations, NMFS is required to use the best available scientific or commercial data, which may include published or unpublished data. Often critical to the jeopardy analysis later in the biological opinion are information on vital rates, as targeted in this proposal. Such information may be used in quantitative analyses of population trends and better quality and increased data will lead to less uncertainty for the agency when reaching its final conclusions. As of June 27, 2012, 10 green turtles have been injected with oxytetracycline at two foraging grounds along the southern California coast. Straight carapace lengths of these turtles ranged from 64.2 cm to 103.4 cm (Table 1). San Gabriel River and Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge are considered one foraging area because of a recapture of a green turtle in the wildlife refuge that was previously caught in San Gabriel River. Because these foraging grounds are located in urbanized and populated area, we expect to have high probability of recovering carcasses if these turtles die in the areas.

Wind direction and other data were collected from fixed platforms from Stuart Island and other locations from 17 March 1980 to 11 July 1980. Data were collected by the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) as part of the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard F101 Ocean Wind Time Series from Buoys format. Full format description is available from NODC at www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f101.html. An analog file for this accession is available from NODC user services. The F101 format is used for time-series measurements of wind and other surface meteorological parameters taken at fixed locations. The instrument arrays may be deployed on automated buoys, ships, or towers. Position, platform type and height, and instrument elevation are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of east-west (u) and north-south (v) wind components at specified date and time. Wind values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at time intervals of 10-15 minutes. Air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and dewpoint temperature may also be reported.
