The management, archiving, and delivery of data collected through NOAA Ocean Exploration-supported expeditions happens through a partnership with NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI). Once data from expeditions supported by our office have been quality control checked, they are freely available via NCEI and/or the NOAA Central Library.
