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 Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) 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": [[[78.7, -66.66], [191.25, -66.66], [191.25, -3.4], [78.7, -3.4], [78.7, -66.66]]]} 78.7 191.25 -66.66 -3.4 AODN documentDigital Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN) HTML XBT documentDigital HTML aodn:XBT_casts_Investigator documentDigital WMS GTSPP documentDigital National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) Global Temperature-Salinity Profile Program (GTSPP) HTML survey_list.cfm?source_id=309 documentDigital RV Investigator Survey Information including voyage plans and summaries 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 MNF documentDigital Marine National Facility HTML License / Attribution documentDigital This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License HTML Unnamed resource documentDigital License Graphic PNG
