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.
This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.

Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM).
Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.
To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.

HMAS Derwent
Additional information about this platform from ICES:
Flag : AUSTRALIA - AU (ISO Country Code)
Call Sign : VKCV
Title : HMAS
Platform Class : Naval vessel
Pennant : 49
Commissioned Date : 1964-04-30
Decommissioned Date : 1994-08-08
Current Length : 112.8
Built : 1961-04-17
Notes : Pennants F22, DE22, and 49
Additional Information Sources:
- http://www.navy.gov.au/HMAS_Derwent
General Comments:
The pennant number of HMAS Derwent was initially F22 in 1964. This was later changed to DE22, with the prefix standing for Destroyer Escort. On 1 January 1969, the Royal Australian Navy adopted the numbering practice used by the US, Canadian and Pakistan Navies, removing the pennant number letter prefix from its ships' hulls. Derwent's pennant number thus became 49.
HMAS Diamantina
Updated information from ICES for the vessel DIAMANTINA from AUSTRALIA.
Name : DIAMANTINA
Flag : AUSTRALIA - AU (ISO Country Code)
Title : HMAS
Platform Class : 39 Naval vessel
Pennant : K377, A266
Commissioned Date : 1945-04-27
Decommissioned Date : 1980-02-29
Current Length : 91.84
Built : 1944-04-06
Notes : WOD 555. Diamantina was recommissioned in 1959 as an Oceanographic Research Ship. She carried scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) during many surveys.

HMAS Moresby
Updated information from ICES for the vessel MORESBY from AUSTRALIA.
Name : MORESBY
Flag : AUSTRALIA - AU (ISO Country Code)
Call Sign : VKPM
Title : HMAS
Platform Class : 31 Research vessel
Commissioned Date : 1964-06-03
Decommissioned Date : 1998
Current Length : 95.7
Built : 1963-09-07
Notes : HMAS Moresby was a hydrographic survey ship of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Sold in 1999 and renamed MV Patricia Anne Hotung, the ship was chartered by the International Organisation for Migration

HMAS Parramatta
Use 0PA=PARRAMATTA for data 1961-1991. Use 09PD=PARRAMATTA for data after 2003.
Additional information from ICES for PARRAMATTA (09PA) from Australia:
Name : PARRAMATTA
Flag : AUSTRALIA - AU (ISO Country Code)
Title : HMAS
Platform Class : Naval vessel
Pennant : DE 46
Commissioned Date : 1961-07-04
Decommissioned Date : 1991-01-11
Built : 1959-01-31
Notes : She was decommissioned on 3 June 1977 for modernisation and refit at Williamstown Naval Dockyard, and on completion decommissioned on 26 August 1981.
*Additional Information Sources:*
- http://www.navy.gov.au/HMAS_Parramatta_(III)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAS_Parramatta
*Important Comments (Conflict resolved!):*
Code 09PA traced back to ship list from at least 1996 so information on Parramatta from 2000 is incorrect for 09PA. The new information has been moved to the code proposed as 09PD. New additional information for the 1961-1991 commissioned vessel has been entered.
HMAS Stuart
Use code=09ST for data from Australia platform STUART from 1963-1991. Use code=09SU for data from Australia platform STUART after 2008.
Additional information about this platform from ICES:
Flag : AUSTRALIA - AU (ISO Country Code)
Title : HMAS
Platform Class : Naval vessel
Pennant : DE 48
Commissioned Date : 1963-06-28
Decommissioned Date : 1991-07-26
Current Length : 112.8
Built : 1961-04-08
Additional Information Sources:
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAS_Stuart
- http://images.mitrasites.com/hmas-stuart-(de-48).html
General Comments:
09ST can be traced back to at least 1996 so the information from the newer "STUART" is incorrect for the code 09ST and has been moved to the newly proposed code 09SU.
