The WHOTS Database

The WHOTS project is committed to providing free and open access to its data set in a timely manner, and the use of these data is encouraged.

We require that users fill out a brief one-time registration form before acquiring these datasets.

The continuous flow of these data depends on funding, and that depends in part on the credits that we get from the data users. If you use these data in your project, please contact Prof. Robert Weller or Prof. Roger Lukas to avoid possible duplication of efforts. Please consider the benefits of possible scientific collaborations in the analysis of these data. If you use our data in your project, we would appreciate your acknowledgement of the WHOTS project. The following should be cited in publications:

This publication is based upon observations from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI)-Hawaii Ocean Timeseries Site (WHOTS) mooring, which is supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through the Cooperative Institute for Climate and Ocean Research (CICOR) under Grant No. NA17RJ1223 to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and by National Science Foundation grant OCE-0327513 to the University of Hawaii.
