Thank you for your interest in the SMODE IOP2 TSG - Meteorology - Bio-Optical data set!


The meteorology and thermosalinograph data in this file have been directly extracted from the .MET files in the collection SMODE_L0_SHIPBOARD_TSG_V1. L0 data can be accessed by contacting PO.DAAC at podaac@podaac.jpl.nasa.gov . While the bio-optical data have undergone calibration and QC by Sarah Lang at the University of Rhode Island, no QC has been done on the TSG and Meteorology data in the current version. Please contact Andrey Shcherbina at shcher@uw.edu with questions about the TSG and Meteorology data set.
