CREWS Enhanced (CREWS-ENH) buoys are equipped to measure sea surface water temperature and conductivity (Sea-Bird Model SBE37-SM, Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., www.seabird.com); PAR, UV305 nm, UV330 nm and UV380 nm (Biospherical BIC2104U) at 1 m (nominal) below the water line and air temperature (R.M Young Model 41342); barometric pressure (Heise DXD); wind vectors (Vaisala WAS425A); PAR, UV305 nm, UV330 nm and UV380 nm (Biospherical BIC2104R) at 2 m (nominal) above the water line. A compass (KVH C100 SE-25) is used in the calculation of wind direction and a GPS system provides geolocation. This metadata record refers to the dataset uploaded from the SBE37-SM sea surface temperature and conductivity recorder. When a CREWS buoy is recovered, another one is typically deployed in the same place. Time series data combining multiple deployments from a given site may also be available. Please contact CRED with any questions. For program information see the web site https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/pacific-islands/ecosystems/coral-reefs-pacific
Monitoring of oceanographic and meteorological conditions provides information about environmental factors influencing coral reef ecosystems.
Platform Manufacturer: Sound Ocean Systems, Inc. (SOSI), Platform Model: CREWS-ENH, Platform Serial Number: 261002; Instrument Manufacturer: Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., Instrument Model: SBE 37SM MicroCAT C-T Recorder (Serial interface and Memory) with RS-232 Interface, Instrument Serial Number: 37SM270051940. This record refers to two (2) data files that have the same name as this metadata file. The file with extension .ASC is the raw data uploaded from the instrument, including header information. Files with extension .CDP (CRED Data Product) have had the header information, pre and post deployment data removed and a preliminary quality control conducted by plotting and reviewing the recorded data and removing obviously erroneous records. Each row corresponds to a data record. Data within the .CDP file is supplied in columnar ASCII format: Column01: Year (UTC), Column02: Month (UTC), Column03: Day (UTC), Column04: Hour (UTC), Column05: Minute (UTC), Column06: Second (UTC), Column07: Temperature (Degrees Celsius), Column08: Conductivity (Siemens/meter), Column09: Salinity (PSU). Instrument Specifications: Temperature (Degrees Celsius): Measurement Range -5 to 35; Initial Accuracy +/-0.002, Typical Stability 0.0002 per month, Resolution 0.0001. Conductivity (Siemens/meter): Measurement Range 0 to 7; Initial Accuracy 0.0003; Typical Stability 0.0003 per month; Resolution 0.00001. Clock Accuracy: 5 seconds per month..
