NODC Standard Format Mechanical Bathythermograph (MBT/C128) Data (1941-1988) (NCEI Accession 9400122)
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
This collection contains temperature, depth, and other data collected using mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) casts from numerous platforms in oceans and seas around the world from 1941-06-04 to 1988-02-16.
Description
Data were processed by NODC to the NODC Mechanical Bathythermograph (MBT/C128) format. The C128 format is used for temperature-depth profile data obtained using the mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) instrument.
The maximum depth of MBT observations is approximately 285 m. Therefore, MBT data are useful only in studying the thermal structure of the upper layers of the ocean. Cruise information, date, position, and time are reported for each observation.

The data record comprises pairs of temperature-depth values. Temperature data in this file are recorded at uniform 5 m depth intervals.
