Temperature profiles from MBT casts from a World-Wide distribution from MULTIPLE PLATFORMS from 1948-04-08 to 1968-12-14 (NCEI Accession 9300131)

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

Temperature profile data were collected from MBT casts from a World-Wide distribution.

Description

Data were collected from MULTIPLE PLATFORMS from 08 April 1948 to 14 Decmeber 1968. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Universal Bathythermograph Output (UBT) format.

Full format description is available from NODC at www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/bt.html. This file 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.
