This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data sources assembled. The mid and late 20th century saw extensive oceanographic research by DFS and Cefas. The resulting data were stored in an Oceanographic Archive which managed data from a number of sensor systems. These included a CTD system deployed for traditional oceanographic water column profiling. The CTD data have been transferred to the Cefas Data Hub as parameters. The original source files contain water column profile data on temperature, salinity, suspended load and fluoresence derived chlorophyll. This metadata record covers UK Continental Shelf and temperature only.

Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 03 - Cefas Oceanographic Archive |
Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Oceanographic Archive (OA) |
File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | CEFAS76e18bb4-4e1c-421f-bfc9-1c10ea77af5f |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEFAS3234 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1982-06-25 |

Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data sources assembled. The mid and late 20th century saw extensive oceanographic research by DFS and Cefas. The resulting data were stored in an Oceanographic Archive which managed data from a number of sensor systems. These included a CTD system deployed for traditional oceanographic water column profiling. The CTD data have been transferred to the Cefas Data Hub as parameters. The original source files contain water column profile data on temperature, salinity, suspended load and fluoresence derived chlorophyll. This metadata record covers UK Continental Shelf and temperature only. |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The CTD profile data in this archive were collected from Cefas (Or DFR) research cruises. They broadly cover the European Shelf with some data from the Iberian Abysal Plain. Data were collected using a lowered CTD rosette system deployed when the vessel is stationary. Water samples were routinely taken at particular depths for calibration purposes. On station, a profile from the surface to near the sea bed was undertaken. The down cast data provide the profile, with water bottle sample collection on the up cast. 1m binned data, from calibrated raw data. 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.
