    String acquisition_description 
"From 2001 cruise report: The optics of the different sea ice types found in
the region. When weather and day light permitted, snow and ice albedo and
transmission measurements were taken. At only one site was the surface frozen
where we could measure the combined snow and ice albedo and transmission and
then shovel the area and re-measuring to subtract out the snow component. This
will allow us to sort out what component the snow and ice have individually in
the transmission of light into the ice and water column for the organisms to
grow. Our measurements were hampered due to blowing snow which we experienced
nearly every day and the fact that we needed to be stopped near solar noon as
the sun angle is low this time of year, so only a limited number of optics
measurements were performed.
 
From 2002 cruise report: We also measured the optics of the sea ice using a
scanning spectral radiometer. This instrument measures the light levels in 0.5
nanometer increments from 380 to 800 nanometers (visible light through the
near infrared). With this instrument we made optical measurements on seven
different ice floes. We performed these measurements through the undisturbed
snow and ice, and would then shovel off the area to obtain measurements of
just the sea ice with no snow cover. We first measured snow and bare ice
albedo, then upwelling irradiance at 1 cm increments as we lowered the sensor
down through the snow cover. We then would drill a hole in the ice and measure
upwelling irradiance at 2 cm to 5 cm increment down through the ice sheet both
before and after removing the snow cover. Additionally, the transmission of
light through both snow covered sea ice and bare ice was measured.";

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.
