Abstract:
ABSTRACT: The Index to Marine and Lacustrine Geological Samples, also known as the Core Curators Database, contains inventory and basic lithology, texture, and age information for samples archived by approximately twenty oceanographic institutions and government agencies, in the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Most samples are available for further study, on request from the individual repository. Listings from the file include institutional contact information. Data are coded at the curatorial facility and include ship, cruise, sample id, latitude/longitude, water depth, date of sample collection, sampling device, storage method, core diameter/length and interval within core (if applicable), primary and secondary lithology and texture or rock type and mineralogy, other noted components, remarks and weathering notes, age, province, principal investigator, and descriptive comments. All samples include basic collection information, but not all samples have additional descriptors. The Index includes over 500,000 data records containing information for over 195,561 discrete sea floor and lakebed cores, grabs, dredges, and drill holes worldwide, as of December 1, 2011. The Index is searchable by any parameter or combination of parameters. The database was designed by representatives of the curatorial facilities in cooperation with NGDC through a series of meetings sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF), beginning in 1977, and NSF continues to support coding of data into the Index. The Index is fully searchable via a www-forms interface on Internet, or via an interactive map interface, both accessible through NGDC's Web site. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: Quality control: Descriptions and metadata are created by the curating facility, which is responsible for the accuracy of the information. Coded entries are checked on receipt by the National Geophysical Data Center for gross errors in coded fields.

ISSUE IDENTIFICATION: Index to Marine and Lacustrine Geological Samples Database or Core Curators Database OTHER CITATION DETAILS: This database is a collaboration between multiple institutions and government agencies, some of which are supported by the National Science Foundation to participate. The database is managed by NGDC on behalf of the curators' consortium of representatives from the institutions cited under data set creators. All data are created by and contributed by participating institutions. Purpose: PURPOSE: Environmental and climate research aid. Designed to help researchers locate sea floor and lakebed geological samples for further analysis. |
