The Water Samples feature class is a collection of water sampling locations from multiple investigations conducted on or around the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) and were funded completely or partially by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM). This layer contains information related to sample acquisition, such as study ID, station ID, date, time, water color, Secchi depth, and instrument used for sampling. Measurements recorded (e.g. temperature, pH, salinity, conductivity, oxygen, turbidity, pressure, density, etc.) at each station are provided in the related Water Results table. The associated study report can be accessed via the Link Documents table. This dataset will be updated regularly as new and existing data are incorporated in to the MMIS geodatabase. |
