    String summary "To better understand the impacts of disease on an important predator and its associate community, standardized count data were initiated by J. Timothy Wootton on Tatoosh Island, Makah Reservation, Washington, USA in 2014 as the sea star wasting disease epidemic of 2013-2014 was progressing through the northeastern Pacific Ocean. At the time of study initiation, signs of disease were absent from Tatoosh Island. Six sites with relatively large, uniform benches on shores with high wave exposure were selected for study areas. Surveys were carried out in the intertidal zone in late spring and summer during periods with strong spring tides to maximize population counts. The area of lower intertidal bench at each sampling site was estimated by tape measure as length x width (meters) of the lower intertidal (below lower limit of the mussel bed in 2014) assuming a rectangular area. Counts were made by the investigator by systematically walking along each site and counting each individual of Pisaster ochraceus encountered, noting whether it had signs of disease (lesions/ruptured body parts, missing arms, thin profile with crossed arms), and whether it was larger than 10 centimeters in diameter. Data characterize the decadal population dynamics and disease dynamics of a keystone sea star predator.";

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
