Data collected under the Commonwealth Marine Economies Programme, and coordinated by the National Oceanography Centre UK
This data collection consists of data collected as part of the Commonwealth Marine Economies Programme (1st April 2016 to 31st March 2020). The data includes two AWAC moorings off the east coast of St. Vincent (July to October 2018 and January to March 2019) and a number of discrete water and underway measurements taken around Belize using a semi autonomous surface platform, "C-worker", owned and managed by the National Oceanography Centre, UK. The AWAC data consists of current profile and water level data, whilst the Belize data consists of biogeochemical and hydrographic data as well as sediment biogeochemical data for blue carbon assessments. This work was funded by the UK Foreign Commonwealth and Developmen Office (FCDO).

- Explanation

BODC protocols are based on the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) model enabling BODC to iterate towards compliance with the on-going evolution and development of community requirements including FAIR (Findable,Accessible,Interoperable,Reusable), TRUST (Transparency, Responsibility, User community, Sustainability, Technology) and CARE (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics). Data managers quality assure submissions and assemble the metadata necessary for curation. Submissions (as received) are placed in a long-term accession and stored in triplicate across multiple sites. Appropriate data are transferred into a standard internal format with source variable names mapped to controlled vocabularies, documentation assembled, and metadata loaded into BODC databases. Access to these data is through direct request, the BODC website and through partner repositories such as SeaDataNet. Access control is attained by assigning a data policy to each set of data and this policy is used to administer access when data are requested. Discovery metadata is aligned with EU INSPIRE (through MEDIN) and SeaDataNet community standards. Data are converted to open community formats including Ocean Data View ASCII and SeaDataNet NetCDF, with data described using terms from the NERC vocabulary server. BODC submission agreements are documented on the BODC website and customer service is assured with a dedicated requests team that serve data following local regulations including General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 and Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) 2004.

- Statement
-
This dataset was created by scientists from the National Oceanography Centre, under the Commonwealth Marine Economies Programme (CMEP), following their in-house data processing procedures. The data were then provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) for ingestion into one of the schemas of the National Oceanographic Database (NODB). During ingestion BODC undertake quality control, documentation and metadata enhancement procedures appropriate to the type of data. For an overview please see http://www.bodc.ac.uk/about/information_technology/data_processing_steps/. BODC supply full information about data collection, data processing and data quality with all data requests to enable users to assess data suitability themselves.Instrument (s) used to collect data: wave recorders; fluorometers; current profilers; salinometers; laboratory autosamplers; CTD.
