This dataset includes ocean station, selected depth bathythermograph (SBT) data from AGS NO 3, AGS NO 4, AGS NO 5, CHOFU MARU, ECHIZEN, ERIMO, ESAN, FUTAMI, GYRO MARU, HEIAN-MARU, HOKKO MARU, HOKUSHIN MARU, ISAZU, IWAKI, KAIYO, KEIFU MARU, KII MARU, KOFU MARU, KOSHIJI MARU, KOSHIKI, KUNIKAGAMI, MASHU, MATSUSHIMA, MEIYO-MARU, MITO MARU, MIZUHO MARU, MOGAMI-MARU, MOTOBU, MUROTO, NOTO, OJIKA, OKI, RYOFU MARU, SAGAMI-MARU, SATSUMA, SEIFU MARU, SENSHU MARU, SHIMANE MARU, SHINANO, SHINTAJIMA MARU, SHOYO, SHUMPU MARU, SHUNYO MARU, SOYA, SOYO-MARU, SUMA, SURUGA MARU, TAKUYO, TANKAI-MARU, TATEYAMA-MARU, TENYO, TOKIWA MARU, TONAN-MARU, TOO MARU, TOTTORI-MARU, UNKNOWN PLATFORMS OF JAPAN, WAKATAKA MARU, YAHIKO, and YOKO-MARU in the East China Sea, Japan Sea, North Pacific Ocean, Philippine Sea, Sea of Okhotsk, and South Pacific Ocean from 1973-01-05 to 1985-06-06.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Ocean Station (C100) and Selected Depth Bathythermograph (SBT) (C125) formats.
The Oceanographic Station Data (C100) format contains physical-chemical oceanographic data recorded at discrete depth levels. Most of the observations were made using multi-bottle Nansen casts or other types of water samplers. A small amount (about 5 percent) were obtained using electronic CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) or STD (salinity-temperature-depth) recorders. The CTD/STD data were reported to NODC at depth levels equivalent to Nansen cast data, however, and have been processed and stored the same as the Nansen data. Cruise information (e.g., ship, country, institution), position, date, and time, and reported for each station. The principal measured parameters and temperature and salinity, but dissolved oxygen, phosphate, total phosphorus, silicate, nitrate, nitrite, and pH may be reported. Meteorological conditions at the time of the cast (e.g., air temperature and pressure, wind, waves) may also be reported, as well as auxiliary data such as water color (Forel-Ule scale), water transparency (Secchi disk depth), and depth to bottom. Values of density (sigma-t) sound velocity, and dynamic depth anomaly are computed from measured parameters. Each station contains the measurements taken at the observed depth levels, but also includes data values interpolated to a set of standard depth levels.
The UBT (C125) format contains temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Cruise information, position, date and time were reported for each observation. The data records are comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Depths are selected by the originator - usually at standard horizons or some fixed interval. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. Special instruments permitted measurements to be obtained to 1830 m.
