The Introductions to the CalCOFI Data reports for all of 2012 are now online as individual files that can be found on the new data website.

The 4-Figure compilation of preliminary spatial pattern figures from the 2014-07NH cruise is now available.  This includes 0/500m Dynamic Height, 10m Salinity, 10m Temperature and 10m Chlorophyll.

The CalCOFI Hydrographic Database & Zooplankton Database are updated whenever new cruise data are finalized. The filenames for the downloadable database & daughter files contain the recent cruise name and date of the update. Since the filenames change often, download links to these files have to be updated in several locations & web pages. In order to minimize this effort & broken links, 'generic' symbolic links will be generated for new data files and their download links:

• CalCOFI_Database_mdb.zip = latest version of the MS Access hydrographic database ie CalCOFI_Database_194903-201307_mdb_12Sept2014.zip
• CalCOFI_Database_csv.zip = latest version of the hydrographic database csv ie CalCOFI_Database_194903-201307_csv_12Sept2014.zip
• CalCOFI_Database_sql.zip = latest version of the hydrographic database sql dump ie CalCOFI_Database_194903-201307_sql_12Sept2014.zip
• CalCOFI_Database_xml.zip = latest version of the hydrographic database xml ie CalCOFI_Database_194903-201307_xml_12Sept2014.zip
• CalCOFI_Zoop.zip = latest version of the zooplankton displacement volume database ie 195101-201307_Zoop.zip

Symbolic link created for CalCOFI DIC data file (CalCOFI_DICs.zip) = CalCOFI_DICs_200901-201307_12Sept2014.zip. This symbolic link will be updated when a new data file is created. Web page links will be the generic symbolic link URL:
