      Title: Maui, Lanai, and Hawaii Water Quality Sampling Dataset Collected
        By Dr. Richard Brock on Behalf of the State of Hawaii Department of
        Health Mostly During 2001-2005 (NODC Accession 0031350)

  Description: 
    Abstract: Transects were made on three islands in nine areas to collect in situ water
      quality measurements.  Each area has several survey transects from the
      shallows seaward.  The project was lead by Dr. Richard Brock of the
      University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program with sponsorship from the
      Monitoring Section of the State of Hawaii, Department of Health, Clean
      Water Branch. Well-established instruments and methodologies were used.  Most
      of the data were during 2001-2005, however, some areas have data
      back to 1989 and several to the mid 1990s.  Transects were mostly
      repeated quarterly to semi-annually.  Data provided in spreadsheet format.
    Purpose: The data were collected for several special projects that needed
      water quality data.
