Dataset: UH Sea Level Center (UHSLC) Tide Gauge Data ("Quality"): Daily Data/New York (40.7 -74.02 1958-2011)
Data type: POINT
Collection type: TimeSeries
Naming Authority: edu.hawaii.soest.uhslc
ID: RQD745
Documentation:
summary: The UHSLC assembles and distributes the Fast Delivery (FD) dataset of hourly and daily averaged values. Tide gauge operators, or data creators, provide FD data to UHSLC after a level 1 quality assessment (e.g., unit and timing evaluation, outlier detection, combination of multiple channels into a primary channel, etc.). UHSLC provides an independent quality assessment of the time series and makes FD data available within 4-6 weeks of collection. This is a "fast" turnaround time compared to Research Quality (RQ) data, which are available on an annual cycle after a level 2 quality assessment (e.g., tide gauge datum evaluation, assessment of level ties to tide gauge benchmarks, comparison with nearby stations, etc) . The UHSLC Fast Delivery database is supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of Climate Observations (OCO). Please direct FD data inquiries to Shikiko Nakahara (nakahara@soest.hawaii.edu) or Mark Merrifield (markm@soest.hawaii.edu).
