Temperature profile data from XBT casts along repeat transects in the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean for the High Resolution XBT Network by Scripps Institute of Oceanography from 1989 to present

Preview graphic

Repeat high resolution expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) transects have been collected along a number of commercial shipping routes spanning the Pacific Ocean, the Drake Passage, and Tasmania to Dumont d'Urville. On each of the transects generally four surveys are conducted per year. Temperature data are usually collected by a scientist on board the vessel using an automatic XBT launcher designed at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO). The launcher holds 6 XBT probes which are pre-programmed to drop at specific locations (using GPS) or times. The XBT probes are Sippican "Deep Blue", which are rated to 760 m depth, but typically return temperature to a depth of around 850 m at ship speeds of 15 to 18 knots. Sequential XBT casts are separated by 30-40 km along track, with closer station spacings of 10 km near boundaries, across the equator and in topographically varying regions. Sampling begins and ends near the 200 m isobath at the coastal endpoints of the tracks.

Publication Dates	publication: 2001-04-16 revision: 2023-02-14
Data Presentation Form	Digital table - digital representation of facts or figures systematically displayed, especially in columns
Dataset Progress Status	Ongoing - data is continually being updated Historical archive - data has been stored in an offline storage facility
Data Update Frequency	As needed
Supplemental Information	Prior to 1994 profiles were collected using a modified analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion board as described by Roemmich and Cornuelle (1987). From 1994 through 2004 a Sippican MK12 data acquisition system was employed, with the modification of the user interface driver programs. These programs were developed at SIO to provide a more user-friendly environment for the ship board data collectors, and to eventually enable collection by non-scientific personnel such as the ship's crew. Profiles are currently collected using AMVER SEAS 2K Windows based software and the Sippican MK21 data acquisition system. AMVER SEAS 2K was developed by NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML). It incorporates many of SIO's older data acquisition functions.
Purpose	This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
Use Limitations	accessLevel: Public Distribution liability: NOAA and NCEI make no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty. NOAA and NCEI cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in these data. If appropriate, NCEI can only certify that the data it distributes are an authentic copy of the records that were accepted for inclusion in the NCEI archives.
