This collection contains raw data from a REMUS-100 autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) deployed over the Makua reef shelf, Oahu, Hawaii on 6-8 September 2013. The dataset includes the vehicle’s location (latitude, longitude), orientation (yaw, pitch, roll), and time (UTC) as well as pressure and velocity measurements from upward- and downward-looking 1200 kHz RDI Doppler velocity logs (DVLs) onboard. Velocity data were collected in ship coordinates. Hydrodynamic surveys consisted of mow patterns with repeated transects in both the cross-and alongshore directions in water depths ranging from 5 to 30 m. The surveys spanned an alongshore distance of about 1600 m, with ...

The California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) are a unique partnership of the California Department of Fish & Wildlife, NOAA Fisheries Service and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The organization was formed in 1949 to study the ecological aspects of the sardine population collapse off California. Today the focus has shifted to the study of the marine environment off the coast of California, the management of its living resources, and monitoring the effects of climate variability and climate change. CalCOFI conducts quarterly cruises off southern & central California, collecting a suite of hydrographic and biological data on station and underway. Data ...

The California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) organization is a unique partnership of the California Department of Fish & Wildlife, NOAA Fisheries Service and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The organization was formed in 1949 to study the ecological aspects of the sardine population collapse off California. Today the focus has shifted to the study of the marine environment off the coast of California, the management of its living resources, and monitoring the indicators of El Nino and climate change. CalCOFI conducts quarterly cruises off southern & central California, collecting a suite of hydrographic and biological data on station and underway. ...

Through a collaboration between NOAA Fisheries Service, Scripps Institution of Oceanography and California Department of Fish & Wildlife, a cooperative was formed in 1949 to study and document the California Current. This group was named California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI). It was initially charged with studying the collapse of the sardine population off California and has evolved over the years to study many aspects of oceanography and marine life. Four times each year, research cruises disembark from California to stop at prescribed sampling locations to monitor the ecology of fish populations and oceanographic parameters that can be used as ...

The California Smokers' Cohort (CSC) is a continuation of a series of triennial surveys, called the California Tobacco Survey (CTS), conducted from 1990 to 2008. The previous CTS is a series of cross-sectional studies to collect information about tobacco use and behaviors among Californians. In 2011, the survey design was modified to survey only smokers, and moreover to perform longitudinal surveys to investigate factors associated with quitting behavior.

The California Department of Public Health (Previously known as the California Department of Health Services until 2007) is required to conduct surveys of attitudes, behaviors, and media exposure regarding smoking and tobacco use as components of the smoking cessation evaluation effort required by California Assembly Bills AB75, AB99 and AB816. The objective of these surveys is to collect representative statewide data on cigarette smoking behavior, attitudes towards smoking, media exposure to smoking, and use of tobacco products other than cigarettes, from populations living in California. These surveys have been conducted approximately every three years through contracts with the University of ...
