Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 02 - Cefas Fishing Survey System

notPlanned

Various quality control checks ensure high quality storage of data and allow users to edit and extract data as required. Allows uploading from Electronic Data Capture System or X-Files. Temperature data were extracted from the FSS database using: SELECT fldCruiseName AS Cruise, fldcruiseStationNumber as StationNumber, fldShotEorW AS EorW, fldShotLonMinutes AS LonMin, fldShotLonDegrees AS LonDeg, fldShotLatMinutes AS LatMin, fldShotLatDegrees AS LatDeg, fldDateTimeShot AS DateTime, fldBottomSalinity AS BottomSalinity, fldSurfaceSalinity AS SurfaceSalinity, fldSurfaceTemp AS SurfaceTemp, fldBottomTemp AS BottomTemp, fldShotDepth AS WaterDepth, fldShotLonDecimalDegrees AS ShotLonDecimal, fldShotNorS AS NorS,fldShotLatDecimalDegrees AS ShotLatDecimal FROM FSS.dbo.tblDataStationLogs where fldBottomTemp is not null or fldSurfaceTemp is not null with values entered as ~36 C removed as suspect; nulls removed. The multiple sources are described in 17 separate metadata entries under the same Title, e.g. Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 15 - RV Cefas Endeavour FerryBox Monitoring System. These data have been described in detail via the following publication. Morris, D. J., Pinnegar, J. K., Maxwell, D. L., Dye, S. R., Fernand, L. J., Flatman, S., Williams, O. J., and Rogers, S.
