attribute	NC_GLOBAL	description	String	Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, has been host to frequent monitoring by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) since the 1960s. This monitoring was formalized as the Bedford Basin Monitoring Program (BBMP), a weekly time series, in 1999. Dalhousie University joined the BBMP in 2008 to begin a bio-optical time series, beginning a close relationship between academic and government researchers.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	summary	String	Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia, has been host to frequent monitoring by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) since the 1960s. This monitoring was formalized as the Bedford Basin Monitoring Program (BBMP), a weekly time series, in 1999. Dalhousie University joined the BBMP in 2008 to begin a bio-optical time series, beginning a close relationship between academic and government researchers. This dataset consists of data collected by a Bio Optical Profiler (BOP)which is a series of instruments mounted on a large cage. There are no measurements taken in August of each year as the vessel is away for maintenance. The Bedford Basin station (BB1) is at 44.693611 N, -63.640278 E and has a maximum depth of 73 m, though the instruments are typically only sent to 60 m. Calibration coefficients are available upon request.
