Additional parameters, including concentrations of dissolved oxygen, suspended particulate material, and chlorophyll pigments, are available for many sites. The measurements are from research cruises taking place typically three times each year, and dating back to 1989. The data set now forms one of the longest hydrographic time series in the world. Marine Scotland scientists use the research vessels FRV Scotia and FRV Alba na Mara to deploy Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) probes from the sea surface to the seabed at a number of fixed stations and other sites of interest. The CTD rigs include ancillary sensors and water sampling devices, which are used to collect water samples for calibration of the in situ sensor data. In 2001, short and long term moorings were also added to Marine Scotland’s data collection activities with current meters, temperature recorders and water level recorders being deployed on moorings in waters around Scotland. Similar to the CTD casts, the research vessels FRV Scotia and FRV Alba na Mara are used to deploy and recover the moorings. Marine Scotland undertakes research and monitoring in both the freshwater and marine environments to provide scientific and technical advice on a wide range of marine and fisheries issues. This is with an aim to examine how the environmental status of Scotland’s seas and oceans varies in response to many pressures, including wide scale natural variability. This will help secure the Scottish Governments’ vision of clean, healthy, safe, productive and biologically diverse marine and coastal environments, managed to meet the long term needs of nature and people. Marine Scotland is part of, and funded by the Scottish Government. Marine Scotland makes annual submissions of CTD and mooring data to BODC.

Data managers quality assure submissions and assemble the metadata necessary for curation. Submissions (as received) are placed in a long-term accession and stored in triplicate across multiple sites. Appropriate data are transferred into a standard internal format with source variable names mapped to controlled vocabularies, documentation assembled, and metadata loaded into BODC databases. Access to these data is through direct request, the BODC website and through partner repositories such as SeaDataNet. Access control is attained by assigning a data policy to each set of data and this policy is used to administer access when data are requested. Discovery metadata is aligned with EU INSPIRE (through MEDIN) and SeaDataNet community standards. Data are converted to open community formats including Ocean Data View ASCII and SeaDataNet NetCDF, with data described using terms from the NERC vocabulary server. BODC submission agreements are documented on the BODC website and customer service is assured with a dedicated requests team that serve data following local regulations including General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 and Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) 2004. true This dataset was created by the organisations with the "originator" role in this metadata record following their in-house data processing and quality control procedures. The data were then provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) for ingestion into one of the schemas of the National Oceanographic Database (NODB). During ingestion BODC undertake quality control, documentation and metadata enhancement procedures appropriate to the type of data. For an overview please see http://www.bodc.ac.uk/about/information_technology/data_processing_steps/. BODC supply full information about data collection, data processing and data quality with all data requests to enable users to assess data suitability themselves. Instrument(s) used to collect data: fluorometers; optical backscatter sensors; nutrient analysers; CTD; dissolved gas sensors.
