Data sources
SESAME Cast Database
The bulk of historical data is the data from
MEDATLAS 2002 and
MATER databases.
Recently accumulated data from
WODB05, ,
CORIOLIS and
ICES databases
(which is not included in MEDATALAS 2002 and MATER) is added to
SESAME-Cast database.
All these data is appointed as “public available data” and
can be downloaded by any registrated visitor.
In addition to “public available data”, SESAME partners carried out efforts for rescue of unpublished historical data and acquisition of new data. This data added in the SESAME-Cast database and appointed as “partner available data”. Until the end of SESAME project this data can be downloaded by SESAME partners only.
Part of the unpublished data is appointed by data providers as “available to data originator only”. These data can be obtained via personal communication with data provider.
Data from the SESAME-Cast database can be downloaded in two different forms:
SESAME Bio Database
The
bulk of historical data is the data provided by SESAME partners in EurOcean
format. Most of these data is appointed as “partner available data” and can be
downloaded by any SESAME partner visitor. Some unpublished datasets are
appointed by data providers as “available to data originator only”. These data
can be obtained via personal communication with data provider. There are several
SESAME partners who have unlimited download right to all data.
List of these partners includes all SESAME WP leaders
Data from the SESAME-Bio database can be downloaded in EurOcean format. However
datasets usually are edited by WP9 experts. In cases where the editing was
significant the editing was coordinated with data providers.
SESAME TimeSeries DataBase
The bulk of historical data is the data which was collected by WP9 partners from
Turkish Institute of Marine Sciences (see
Deliverable 9.2.1 “Scanning of external public domain databases for physical and
chemical permanent stations data (time series)”
by Volodymyr Myroshnychenko and Ali Cemal Gucu.) All these data is appointed as
“public available data” and can be downloaded by any registrated visitor.
In addition to “public available data”, SESAME partners carried out
efforts for rescue of unpublished historical data and acquisition of new data.
This data added in the SESAME-Series database and appointed as “partner
available data”. Until the end of SESAME project this data can be downloaded by
SESAME partners only. Part of the unpublished data is appointed by data
providers as “available to data originator only”. These data can be obtained via
personal communication with data provider.
Data from the SESAME-Series database can be downloaded in form ASCII file
which is useful for viewing and manipulation by
