  Description: 
    Abstract: CRED SVP drifter Argos_ID 24756 was deployed in the region of American Samoa to assess ocean currents and
      sea surface temperature. SVP drifter data files contain drifter ids, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, GPS
      latitude and longitude. Drifter data was collected hourly. All dates and times are UTC. Contact Coral Reef Ecosystem
      Division (CRED), NOAA Pacific Island Fisheries Science Center for more information.
