Universal bathythermograph (UBT) data from OLEANDER and Skogafoss in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1994-01-05 to 1994-12-19 (NCEI Accession 9500005)
The water depth and temperature data was collected in NW Atlantic (limit-40 W) from ships OLEANDER and SKOGAFOSS as part of Ship Of Opportunity Programme (SOOP). The data was collected from January 5, 1994 to December 19, 1994. The originator's bathythermograph (XBT) data was submitted by National Marine Fisheries Service, Narragansett, RI. Data has been processed to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (BT) Data format.
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.
