Appendix A— ROSCOP Summaries 



In the following ROSCOP (Report of Observations/ 

 Samples Collected by Oceanographic Programs) sum- 

 maries,* all institutions or activities are U.S. participants 

 in IDOE and all projects are part of the Declared National 

 Program (DNP) for Marine Data Exchange. All IDOE-related 

 ROSCOP's received by NOAA's Environmental Data Service 

 from April 1976 to April 1977 are included in this appendix. 

 The reported ROSCOPs bring the IDOE 1970-77 total to 467. 

 Information is presented in the following order: 



Line 1: Name of vessel or platform used to collect the 

 data, name of institution operating the vessel or plat- 

 form**, ship cruise number. 



Line 2: Inclusive dates of the cruise or platform deploy- 

 ment; general ocean area of cruise; and 10" Marsden 

 square(s) where observations and samples were collected, 

 as shown by charts following Appendices. 



Line 3: NODC Reference Number. (Reference to this num- 

 ber when requesting ROSCOPs facilitates retrieval of the 

 information.) 



Line 4: Name of Principal Investigator or chief scientist 

 on the cruise, his affiliate institution***, and the iden- 

 tifying number of the NSF grant that supports the principal 

 investigator. 



Line 5: Name of the program and project of the Inter- 

 national Decade of Ocean Exploration for which the cruise 

 data and collections were made.

 of stations, observations, samples, or miles of record follow 

 line 5. Where continuous sampling or observing has been 

 made, the number of miles is used rather than discrete 

 values.
