Summary
Abstract:
The iziko South African Museum houses the most important crustacean (crabs,
lobsters, shrimps, barnacles) collection in South Africa. Significant past
contributions were made by K.H. Barnard, J.R. Grindley and B.F. Kensley
(Crustacea).
It currently contains 5101 records of 274 families.

Quality
This is the second public release of the version 003 OMI Level-2 Ozone product. Quality of the data has improved with the use of better ozone absorption coefficients and other minor changes.
Use Constraints
This Data set (second public release of version-3 products) is better than the earlier version but it is not fully validated yet.
