The National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) (http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/coare) has responsibility for distributing information about TOGA COARE datasets and access paths.
Background The oceanographic cruise EQUALIS, a joint operation between the two international projects JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux Study) and TOGA COARE, was organized by the FLUPAC group of the Centre ORSTOM de Noumea, New Caledonia, with participation and collaboration of Japanese and Australian scientists.
The cruise was carried out from 3 November through 12 December 1992 (Noumea to Noumea) onboard the ORSTOM research vessel ALIS and consisted of two fixed stations at 156 15E, 1 30S (12 - 22 November 1992) and 156 10E, 1 45S (27 November - 6 December 1992), interrupted for one day (27/28 November) for intercomparison of meteorological measurements with the Australian research vessel Franklin.
