Bathythermograph (XBT) data from ATLANTIS II, CALIFORNIAN, and others in the Alboran Sea, Baltic Sea, and others from 1966-07-22 to 1967-11-30 (NCEI Accession 7000897)
This dataset includes bathythermograph (XBT) data from ATLANTIS II, CALIFORNIAN, CRAWFORD, DELAWARE, USCGC Evergreen, USS BENNINGTON, USS BRADLEY, USS BRONSTEIN, USS BRUMBY, USS C. H. ROAN, USS D. H. FOX, USS Everett F. Larson, USS Forest Sherman, USS Frank E. Evans, USS GARCIA, USS Hartley, USS Hawkins, USS J. W. THOMASON, USS KEARSARGE, USS Laffey, USS Lester, USS VESOLE, USS WALKE, and VAN VOORHIS in the Alboran Sea, Baltic Sea, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, Kattegat, The Sound, Storebælt, Lillebælt, Mediterranean Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Pacific Ocean, North Sea, Philippine Sea, Skagerrak, and South China Sea from 1966-07-22 to 1967-11-30.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (XBT) (C116) format.
The C116/C118 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 record was comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Unlike the MBT Data File, in which temperature values were recorded at uniform 5 m intervals, the XBT data files contained 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. With special instruments, measurements can be obtained to 1830 m. Prior to July 1994, XBT data were routinely processed to one of these standard types. XBT data are now processed and loaded directly in to the NODC Ocean Profile Data Base (OPDB). Historic data from these two data types were loaded into the OPDB.
