US Fish Commission Logbooks

Deck logs for nine fisheries research vessels held in microfilm and book format at National Archives facilities in Washington DC and Silver Spring MD. They document temperature, pressure, and weather conditions in a standardized format. Period of record 1877-1925. Scanned through a partnership between NCDC's Climate Database Modernization Program and the National Marine Fisheries Service. In the index field, SI stands for Smithsonian Institution. The three columns in which SI appears document the location of the paper records.
