Entity Information

Entity Type
Data Table

Data Attribute / Type Description
DSUITEID
NUMERIC
Unique identifier for each Diel Suite deployed
EXPOCODE
TEXT
Defined as the Ship ICES code + departure date formatted as YYYYMMDD
CRUISE_COMMON_NAME
TEXT
More descriptive name of cruise/mission and is usually in the format [MissionID]-[REGIONDesignation]-[IslandCode if only one visited]
MISSION_CODE
TEXT
A single designation that applies to all the rounds associated with a given mission/cruise
ASSOC_REA_SITE
TEXT
An identifier for the ecological site at the island or atoll (LOCATION) associated with the diel survey. Combines a 3-letter island code (derived from LOCATIONCODE) with a 2-4 digit site number.
OCC_SITEID
TEXT
A 3-dimensional identifier for the fixed location (LATITUDE and LONGITUDE) and depth where the subsurface temperature logger (STR) was deployed at the island or atoll (LOCATION). Includes "OCC" prefix, a 3-letter location code (derived from LOCATION), and a 3-digit site number. A newly deployed instrument is assigned to a pre-existing OCC_SITEID if its coordinates are within a 100-m diameter and its depth is within a 3-m depth cylinder of a pre-existing OCC_SITEID, otherwise, the instrument is assigned a new OCC_SITEID.
REGION
TEXT
The name of the region where the diel survey was conducted in the Pacific Islands region: American Samoa, Pacific Remote Island Areas, Mariana Archipelago, main Hawaiian Islands, Northwestern Hawaiian Islands.
REGIONCODE
TEXT
Code for the region surveyed in the Pacific Islands region: American Samoa (SAMOA), Pacific Remote Island Areas (PRIA), Mariana Archipelago (MARIAN), main Hawaiian Islands (MHI), Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI).
LOCATION
TEXT
Name of island or atoll where the sample was collected in the Pacific Islands region (REGION).
LOCATIONCODE
TEXT
3-Letter unique code for LOCATION.
LATITUDE
NUMERIC
Latitude in decimal degrees, WGS84, for the given Site
LONGITUDE
NUMERIC
Longitude in decimal degrees, WGS84, for the given Site
DEPTH_M
NUMERIC
Calculated depth value (m) from pressure, as logged during the CTD deployment. NULL if pressure is NULL.
YEAR
NUMERIC
Year of the mission
UTCDATETIME
DATE
UTC date and time of CTD cast (m/d/yyyy h:mm:ss), collected every 10 seconds to 5 minutes, depending on the site and year.
CTD_SAMPLEINTERVAL_SEC
NUMERIC
Sample interval for CTD data.
PRESSURE_DB
NUMERIC
Measured pressure value in decibars.
TEMP_DEGC
NUMERIC
Measured temperature value in degrees Celsius.
SALN_PSU
NUMERIC
Calculated salinity value in Practical Salinity Units (PSU) .
DENSITY_SIGMAT
NUMERIC
Calculated sigma-t density value, the density of seawater at atmospheric pressure minus 1000 kilograms/cubic meter. NULL if pressure is NULL.
COND_S_PER_M
NUMERIC
Measured conductivity value in Siemens per meter. Occasionally conductivity data cannot be recovered from the CTD, resulting in NULL values.

Title: ESD_DS_DataDict_2018_PRIA_CTD
Status: Completed
Abstract:

Conductivity-Temperature-Depth entities and attributes for diel surveys.

Notes:

If CTD sensor failed to log pressure as in during a deployment in 2016, depth was calculated with pressures as recorded from ADCP.
