RELATED TO NOAA BOUY DATA
Dear Mr. Newkirk,	3:24 PM 9/12/2000
Pnewkirk@tsc.ndbc.noaa.gov,
I hope you are having a great day!

I recently left a message on your voice-mail and this is a follow-up email to explain what exactly our needs are.

I am emailing from the California State Department of Fish & Game located at the Marine Headquarters in Monterey, CA.

My supervisor David VenTresca (Associate Marine Biologist) and myself (Briana Brady - Scientific Aid) would like to find out if it would be possible for you to send us a dataset.

We are currently trying to assess the nearshore fishes somatic and reproductive conditions and subsequent recruitment here in the Monterey area.  We would like to obtain the sea surface temperature dataset for area 46042-Monterey to use in our analysis, dating back to 1987 (earlier if you have the information) to the present.

We are very aware  that this information is listed in table form on the web, but we thought that we might be able to get our hands on just this one particular field of the dataset.

If this is possible, that would be absolutely great!  Just let me know what formats the data can come in.

Please feel free to call me at the below number any time this week after 1pm Pacific time (except for Thursday).  If you would like to speak with David directly, his number is (831)649-2881.

Thank you,

Briana
