String acquisition_description
"Methodology:
Plankton samples were collected from discrete depths during CTD casts using
a high-capacity, diaphragm pump with an intake hose mounted to the CTD
Rosette. Subsamples of sample contents were manually counted, identified, and
measured in the laboratory
Sampling and analytical procedures:
For each sample, the pump was run for a timed period of nominally 5 min. The
flow rate of the pump was usually measured immediately prior to sampling, by
recording the time required to fill a barrel of known volume. Samples were
preserved and stored in 5% buffered formalin. The laboratory protocol was to
separate samples into two size fractions by passing them through large (200 or
500 \\u03bcm) then small (64 \\u03bcm) mesh sieves; split, dilute, and sub-
sample each size fraction as needed; count and identify all plankters (minimum
n = 50) in each subsample; and estimate the length and width of exactly 100
plankters (the first 50 from the large and small fraction, respectively) to
the nearest 50 \\u03bcm using a dissecting microscope. Three replicate small
size fractions per sample were processed starting in 2006.
Data column \"vol\" was calculated as follows:
vol =
length(unique(replicate)*aliquot/beaker/2^splits*50/s_per_50l*d_min*60*1e-3
Data column \"flag\" contains the following codes:
flag 1: length & width were not measured, but estimated from similar samples
flag 2: shallow & deep samples not labeled, but deduced from sample contents
flag 3: depth estimate less accurate than usual (\\u00b1 ~3 m)
flag 4: time estimate less accurate than usual (\\u00b1 ~15 min)
flag 5: pump flow rate estimated by nominal flow rate";

The instrument is lowered via cable through the water column and permits scientists observe the physical properties in real time via a conducting cable connecting the CTD to a deck unit and computer on the ship. The CTD is often configured with additional optional sensors including fluorometers, transmissometers and/or radiometers. It is often combined with a Rosette of water sampling bottles (e.g. Niskin, GO-FLO) for collecting discrete water samples during the cast. This instrument designation is used when specific make and model are not known.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
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.
