If the use of this data in a publication constitutes a major or reasonably significant aspect of an article, co-authorship by a NOAA CSL scientist is appropriate; please discuss any such planned use with the contact scientists. We welcome collaborations and will lend our scientific expertise in interpretation and evaluation of the data.
