Bathythermograph (MBT) data from ARA CAPITAN CANEPA, CRAWFORD, and others in the Alboran Sea, East China Sea, and others from 1962-07-13 to 1968-03-31 (NCEI Accession 6900838)
This dataset includes bathythermograph (MBT) data from ARA CAPITAN CANEPA, CRAWFORD, GENERAL PUEYRREDON, USC&GS Peirce, USCGC Chautauqua, USNS ELTANIN, USNS James M. Gilliss, USS Falgout, USS Gurke, USS Johnston, USS Laffey, and USS Theodore E. Chandler in the Alboran Sea, East China Sea, Greenland Sea, Gulf of Thailand, Japan Sea, Mediterranean Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Pacific Ocean, Norwegian Sea, Philippine Sea, South Atlantic Ocean, South China Sea, South Pacific Ocean, and Southern Ocean from 1962-07-13 to 1968-03-31.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (MBT) (C128) format.
The C128 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.
