String summary "The data being submitted to NODC contain information about temperature and salinity obtained with the use of thermosalinographs (TSG) installed in ships of the NOAA fleet and other cargo and cruise ships. The data is transmitted to AOML/NOAA in real-time and submitted to a quality control procedure developed at AOML based on the Global Ocean Surface Underway Data Pilot Project (GOSUD) real-time control test. Data approved in these tests are submitted to the GTS. The data set submitted to NODC for distribution constitute the complete data set received by AOML with the corresponding flags after the quality control.";

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.
