Abstract
This report is a compilation of most of the data collected during the 1993 "Newfoundland Offshore Burn Experiment" or NOBE. Most of the material is presented in the form of raw data. Where noted, some data have been corrected for background and calibration values. Data treatments are described in the text at the beginning of each section. Log books and other verbal descriptions have not been edited. Material in the appendices has been printed as received from the parties conducting the work.
