World Ocean Database (WOD) A quality controlled collection of ocean profiles,
plankton tow , and ship-based surface measurements from 1772-present.

World Ocean Database• Contains contributions from national data centers, universities, special projects, fisheries, navies, government agencies, individual
scientists, merchant ships etc.
• Data found on internet, index cards, glass slides, outdated computer media, published cruise reports, etc.
• Original data must be accessible in the NODC archive/permission must be obtained for all data

Are there still data to be rescued?
In a letter dated 11 May, 1990 from Lawrence Hall (Director of Ocean Programs, Sippican Inc.) to Greg Withee (director US NODC), it was noted that Sippican had manufactured > 4 million XBTs to date.
In the World Ocean Database, there are 1.3 million XBT profiles which are from drops prior to the end of 1990.

Are there still data to be rescued?
WOD09: 7,955 bottle/CTD casts in the Sea of Okhotsk
WOD13: 14,264 bottle/CTD casts in the Sea of Okhotsk
6,309 casts added, mostly from the Russian Far East Institute

Relevant to Workshop
• Always more historical/recent data – are we setting up a framework for continued quality control or working with a static historical database?
• If continuous, at which stage of the data flow do we insert ourselves and in what manner?
• What data sets are we dealing with – how do we handle each data set (pinniped? moored buoy?)
• Is the WOD a proper vessel for this project, or is a different system necessary?
• How will data be disseminated?
