Temperature profiles from XBT casts from the CIUDAD DE SALAMANCA and other platforms as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration (IDOE) from 1966-06-02 to 1974-08-29 (NCEI Accession 7500613)
Temperature profiles were collected from XBT casts from the CIUDAD DE SALAMANCA and other platforms from 02 June 1966 to 29 August 1974. Data were collected by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and other institutions as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration (IDOE). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Universal Bathythermograph Output (UBT) format.
The UBT 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. The XBT data files contain temperature values at non-uniform depths. These depths were recorded at the minimum number of points ("inflection points") required to accurately define the temperature curve. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. Special instruments permit measurements to be obtained to 1830 m.
