XBT data typically comprises temperature and depth readings relayed to the surface at intervals of 0.1 seconds as the probe passes through the top few hundred metres of the ocean. This dataset has been QCed by the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research's (CMAR's) Ocean Observing Networks (OON) group. The data can be retrieved via CMAR Data Trawler, please see link below. The data is also available via the international National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Program (GTSPP) (Southern Surveyor platform code: 09SS and call sign: VLHJ) and Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN). {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[100.0, -48.0], [191.25, -48.0], [191.25, 0.0], [100.0, 0.0], [100.0, -48.0]]]} 100.0 191.25 -48.0 0.0 XBT data (ASCII format) documentDigital Download xbt_ascii_ma_2007_2012.zip (MEDS ASCII format ) ZIP XBT data (.nc) documentDigital Download xbt_nc_ss2007_2012.zip (NetCDF format) ZIP GTSPP documentDigital National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Program (GTSPP) HTML GTSPP software documentDigital Software to read and view files (NODC GTSPP) HTML XBT data quality control documentDigital CSIRO Cookbook for Quality Control of Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) Data HTML GTSPP codes documentDigital Code descriptions (NODC GTSPP) HTML
