Temperature profile data collected using mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) from various seas as part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration/North Pacific Experiment (IDOE/NORPAX) project from 1932-07-01 to 1970-07-15 (NCEI Accession 7501195)
Temperature and depth data were digitized from mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) analog output from the Pacific and Indian Ocean from July 1932 to July 15, 1970. Data were submitted by Scripps Institution of Oceanography as a part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration / North Pacific Experiment (IDOE/NORPAX) project.

Supplemental Information | In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number. NOTE: These data were extracted from a magnetic tape. Setting a carriage-return/line feed character or folding the file contents at 80 characters, i.e., an 80 character record length, will wrap each line to display columnar data beginning with a two digit latitude value (e.g., 06N). 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.
