CalCOFI and hydrographic databases on Nemo.ucsd.edu

The workstation nemo.ucsd.edu contains a number of data sets
which you might find useful.  Nemo's primary aim is to be a
useful assemblage of hydrographic data and to make these
available online.  Nemo is the primary archive for
CalCOFI data, so you might be especially interested in
that aspect of it.  These are available without a
personal login on nemo.

Nemo's original support was obtained by Russ Davis 
in order to provide datasets especially for use by
SIO students.  All SIO students, postdocs and 
investigators are welcome to use any of the
resources on nemo; data are accessible through the login
"info", through anonymous ftp, and through conventional
personal login.  Please contact Lynne Talley
(ltalley@ucsd.edu) if you wish to have a login on nemo.
Programmer support is available if you have questions about
how to use any of the databases (David Newton at
dnewton@ucsd.edu).

A. Data available through the login "info".

Available are
    calsearch (all CalCOFI data)
    atocsearch (Pacific metadata: tide gauges, WOCE stations, acoustic paths)
    etopo5 (bathymetry)
    lookship (utility - NODC ship and country codes)
    information about nemo databases
The output from these searches is placed in the anonymous
ftp area and you can then retrieve them for use on your own
computer.

B. Data available through anonymous ftp.

    WOCE hydrographic data, as released by the WHPO.

C. Datasets and utilities available to nemo users, through a
personal login. SIO gradute students, ATOC + JIMO
investigators are encouraged to obtain a login and access
these local datasets.
