        abstract:  Temperature profile data were collected using XBT and BT casts from NOAA Ship RESEARCHER and other platforms in the North/South Atlantic Ocean and North/South Pacific Ocean from 20 May 1987 to 19 April 1992. Data were collected by the National Ocean Service (NOS) with support from Equatorial Pacific Ocean Climate Studies (EPOCS) and SubTropical Atlantic Climate Studies (STACS) projects. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Universal Bathythermograph Output (UBT) format. The UBT file format is used for temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles at depths of about 450 or 760 m. With special instruments, measurements can be obtained to 1830 m. Cruise information, position, date, and time are reported for each observation. The data record comprises pairs of temperature-depth values. Unlike the MBT data file, in which temperature values are recorded at uniform 5m intervals, the XBT Data File contains temperature values at non-uniform depths. These depths are at a minimum number of points ("inflection points") required to record the temperature curve to an acceptable degree of accuracy. On output, however, the user may request temperature values either at inflection points or interpolated to uniform depth increments.
        purpose:  This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.

        supplementalInformation:  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. Points of contact for this dataset include: Contact info: Agency: US DOC; NOAA; NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE - ROCKVILLE PI: N/A Address: address: 6001 EXECUTIVE BLVD. city: ROCKVILLE state: MD postal: NOT AVAILABLE country: UNITED STATES

Was renamed JOIDES Resolution in 1996 Information Source : Captain of the JOIDES Resolution (Person) Same Vessels Info - JOIDES Resolution General Comments: From Leslie Peart at Deep Earth Academy [deepearthacademy@oceanleadership.org]. Here are the answers to your questions straight from Captain Alex Simpson, who's aboard [JOIDES Resolution] right now. 1. The Science Community affectionately called the SEDCO BP/471 "JOIDES Resolution" soon after sailing from Pascagoula where the science conversion was done back in 1985. However, the vessel did not officially change her name till 1996. 2. I can confirm that IMO No.742308 is correct 3. Call sign is D5BC
