This script transforms long-format data tables used in rocky intertidal surveys of the Marine Biodiversity Observation Network Pole to Pole of the Americas ([MBON Pole to Pole](https://marinebon.org/p2p/)) into Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A) files for publishing data in the Ocean Biodiversity Information System ([OBIS](https://obis.org/)) following instructions from this [manual](https://diodon.github.io/P2P_documents/PublishData/docs/PublishingDataIPT.html). It also generates an integrated file ready for data analysis.

Satellite SST and CHL data extractions from selected locations Marine Biodiversity Observation Network Pole to Pole of the Americas (MBON Pole to Pole) Written by E. Montes (emontesh@usf.edu) and Eduardo Klein (eklein@usb.ve) on August 28, 2020. This code pulls data from NOAA's ERDDAP servers and creates time series plots of sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a concentration (CHL), and maps showing the latest available data for the selected region.
