String description "Animal telemetry is the science of revealing the movements and behavior of animals as they move through the world’s oceans, coastal rivers, estuaries, and Great Lakes. Tags that are attached to animals have made it possible to collect high-quality biological and oceanographic observations on timescales varying from days to years as the animals move through aquatic habitats. These observations provide scientific information that is used to inform the management of marine fisheries and endangered and protected species, assess the potential effects of anthropogenic disturbances on aquatic species, help inform decisions about protecting and restoring healthy coastal ecosystems and improve ocean modeling and forecasting. Although considerable telemetry infrastructure and expertise exists in the U.S. these assets are often owned and operated independently by multiple Federal agencies and non-Federal institutions with limited or no connectivity. Lack of institutional connections prevents the scientific community from efficiently coordinating data and thereby best serving societal needs. Currently funded by BOEM, ONR and NOAA, the ATN maximizes the benefit of these existing investments by empowering alliances among Federal, industry, academic, state, local, tribal, and non‐Federal organizations to both coordinate and to provide funding for sustaining animal telemetry infrastructure and operations as well as consistently delivering animal telemetry data across the United States and with our international partners.";

String description "Living marine resources are essential to the health and recreational needs of billions of people, yet marine biodiversity and ecosystem processes remain major frontiers in ocean observing. IOOS has a critical role in implementing operational, sustained programs to observe biology and catalogue biodiversity to ensure these data are available for science, management, and the public. IOOS is leading development of the Marine Biodiversity Observation Network, with core funding from NOAA, NASA and BOEM. MBON connects regional networks of scientists, resource managers, and users and integrates data from existing long-term programs to understand human- and climate-induced change and its impacts on marine life. MBON partners are pioneering application of new remote sensing methods, imaging, molecular approaches (eDNA and ‘omics), and other technologies and integrating these with traditional research methods and coordinated experiments to understand changing patterns of biodiversity.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
