This section describes the content and format of each of the nine files that comprise this
NDP (see Table 13 below). Because CDIAC distributes the data set
in several ways (via the web, CDIAC's online ordering system, or anonymous FTP), each of
the nine files is referenced by both an ASCII file name, which is given in lowercase,
bold-faced type (e.g., ndp077.txt), and a file number. The remainder of this
section describes (or lists, where appropriate) the contents of each file.
