Definition

  • Data Center Description https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/ The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) is one of the national environmental data centers operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NODC's primary mission is to acquire, archive, process, quality control, and distribute all types of oceanographic data. The NODC holds physical, chemical, and biological oceanographic data collected by U.S. Federal agencies, state and local government agencies, universities and research institutions, and private industry. A large percentage of the oceanographic data held by NODC is of foreign origin, acquired through direct bilateral exchanges with other countries and through the facilities of the World Data Center A (WDC-A) for Oceanography (operated by NODC). The NODC provides data management support for major ocean science projects such as TOGA (Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere), WOCE (World Ocean Circulation Experiment), and JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux Study). NODC also manages the NOAA Library and Information Network, which can be found online at http://www.lib.noaa.gov/. NODC provides online access to a significant proportion of its oceanographic data and information using services available through the NODC WWW Home Page, including: . unprocessed originator data sets from the NODC archive . World Ocean Database version 2 . Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Project (GTSPP) . Ocean Profile Data Base . NOAA Marine Environmental Buoy Information Database . NODC Time Series Database . NODC CD-ROM products via the NOAA National Data Centers Online Store The NODC Home Page on the World Wide Web (WWW) can be found at: http://www.nodc.noaa.gov Additional information about NODC and its data holdings, products, and services can be obtained from: National Oceanographic Data Center User Services Team NOAA/NESDIS/NODC E/OC1 SSMC3 Fourth Floor 1315 East West Highway Silver Spring, MD 20910-3282 Phone: 301-713-3277 FAX: 301-713-3302 Email: services@nodc.noaa.gov The NOAA Home Page can be found at: https://www.noaa.gov/ (en)
