String summary "To quantify the ground volumes on Amund Ringnes Island NU, Canada), 100 boreholes were drilled to depths up to 3 meters from 1974 to 1977. This borehole was drilled on 1977-08-02 with a hand-held modified CRREL drill and is 2.0 m deep. The dataset describes active layer thickness, soil stratigraphy and characteristics (grain size analyses, soil liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index, carbonate content, pH), volumetric ground ice content, and surface deposits. Soil characteristics were determined in the laboratory, and volumetric ice content was determined with a combination of visual estimates and laboratory measurements. ";

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").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
