Temperature profile data collected from multiple platforms primarily in the Pacific Ocean during the Thermal Structure Monitoring Program in the Pacific (TRANSPAC) project, 1975-05-22 to 1990-07-08
This collection includes temperature profile and other data collected using bathythermograph (BT/XBT) casts, meteorological sensors, secchi disks, and bottle casts from multiple platforms primarily in the Pacific Ocean from May 22, 1975 to July 8, 1990. Data were submitted by multiple institutions as part of the Thermal Structure Monitoring Program in the Pacific (TRANSPAC) project. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Universal Bathythermograph Output (UBT) format.

Supplemental Information | Note: Some metadata for this dataset was 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 datasets on an ongoing basis. |
